By The organizers of the #DumsorMustStop vigil have officially announced that the protest will proceed as planned today, Saturday, June 8.
Participants are expected to assemble at the University of Ghana, Legon, at 2 p.m.
This decision comes after the Ghana Police Service attempted to halt the vigil by filing an injunction application, citing concerns about its proximity to a security installation.
However, the organizers, led by Henry Osei, reassured the public during a press conference on Wednesday, June 5, that all issues with the police had been resolved.
Mr. Osei provided assurance to the public regarding the peaceful nature of the protest and stated that the police had pledged to provide maximum security for the event.
The objective of the #DumsorMustStop vigil is to exert pressure on the government to tackle the nation’s power difficulties, which have led to sporadic power outages in numerous regions of Ghana during peak periods.
According to the organizers, the crisis is attributed to the government’s alleged failure to settle the necessary fuel payments, as asserted by independent power producers.
