Enough is Enough

The Ghana Police Service (GPS) has firmly denied reports of a shooting incident at the Kumasi office of the Electoral Commission (EC).

Contrary to circulating rumours, the police confirmed that no demonstrators were injured during the event.

According to a police statement on Tuesday, a group of demonstrators attempted to breach the agreed-upon arrangements by forcing their way into the EC office compound.

The police intervened to restrain these individuals, ensuring the situation did not escalate further.

The police have urged the media to exercise caution and accuracy in their reporting to prevent the spread of misinformation.

Meanwhile, it is reported that chaos erupted in Kumasi as police deployed teargas to disperse NDC supporters who clashed with law enforcement officers during the ‘Enough is Enough’ demonstration.

One protester is said to have sustained injuries and was rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Some protesters were also seen attempting to attack a police officer who sought refuge in a nearby house.

Another officer was also injured after being assaulted by protesters.
