Press Release

AFAG

July 20, 2012

AFAG DEMO SUSPENDED


Today is a sad day for AFAG and perhaps the darkest in the political history for the people of Ghana's Western Region. AFAG was confronted by the challenge of NDC's lawyer David Annan at an Accra High court today the 20th of July that, the press conference held 2 weeks ago by AFAG to announce the "wonkyendi" Demo in Takoradi on Tuesday the 31st of July was contemptuous.

 

It is however unthinkable that, although our wise counsel (Egbert Faibelle Jnr) was available for Thursday the 26th of July for the next court hearing, David Annan the applicant in this regard, was comfortable with Tuesday the 31st of July. This date has been granted as the next hearing of the court.


In this regard, the members of AFAG filled with the depth of pain will like the general public and especially the people of the Western Region to note that, AFAG's planned demonstration in Takoradi to be held on Tuesday the 31st of July has been suspended.
Lawyer David Annan (chairman of NDC's legal team) you have had your way, but the people of Western region someday will have their say. However, all must take note that, power under Ghana's 4th republican dispensation is note absolute, and the primitive doctrine that, might is right is a thing of the past.

God bless us all.
Signed:
Dr. Nana Ayew Afriye (chairman) - 0244 78 03 59
Arnold Boateng (General Secretary)-0244 29 47 54
Hon James Apeatu (Vice- Chairman)-0244 37 50 34
