PRESS STATEMENT
March 22, 2013
AFAG SET FOR POSITIVE DEFIANCE
The Alliance for Accountable Governance (AFAG) is by this
declaration assuring the general public, that the group is not
moved by attempts by the Ghana Police force to scuttle its
much publicized ‘miekuku’ demonstration slated for Tuesday,
March 26 2013.
As a group, we find the excuse by the police service to the
effect that the entire ministries area is a security zone as
untenable, considering the fact that our checks have revealed,
that several groups have not too long ago used the same routes
to demonstrate. What has changed all of a sudden?
In all we smell a clandestine attempt by the incompetent and
insensitive Mahama led NDC government to use the police
service to once again scuttle our plans. However, unlike time
past, we wish to assure the Ghana Police Force and the unseen
hands dictating the pace of affairs, that we are resolute,
resolved and adequately prepared to face any opposition with
equal and even more superior force should the need arise.
We wish to reiterate to all that the routes for the Mieku
demonstration are unchanged and remains as follows; Obra spot
through Nkrumah Avenue to Farisco Traffic light, turn left to
the TUC building to Cedi House through to the Ministries
traffic light.
At the traffic light, we would turn left, go behind the
Ministry of Communications, through the Ohene Djan Stadium to
the Osu Cemetery traffic light.
From there, we would turn left towards Parliament House, where
the leadership of AFAG would present a petition to the
leadership of parliament. After the presentation, leadership
would join the demonstrators to march to the children’s park,
where the gathering would be addressed by the organizers of
the event.
Thank you.
