Violent clashes erupted between protesters from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and security forces in the Ashanti Region during a demonstration against the Electoral Commission (EC).
The confrontation occurred when disagreements arose over the protesters’ access to the local EC office.
According to reports, the unrest began when police attempted to prevent the large crowd from entering the EC office. The situation escalated, leading to one person being injured as the demonstrators managed to overpower the police and gain entry to the building.
The NDC’s protest, a crucial part of a broader nationwide campaign, is demanding a forensic audit of the voter roll, a move that could significantly impact the upcoming elections.
The party’s leadership in the Ashanti Region must still present their formal petition to the election management body.
Stay tuned for further updates as the situation continues to unfold, keeping you informed and connected to the latest developments.
