FixTheCountry demo: Some Ghanaians numbering in about a thousand have hit the streets of Accra to demonstrate against Nana Akufo-Addo’s government to create more jobs under the trending social media hashtag #FixTheCountry.

The demonstrators, mostly youth, are clad in black and red blowing vuvuzelas amidst the chanting of patriotic and war songs.

Totally disregarding social distancing protocols in the over three-kilometer walk demonstration from the Obra Spot at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle to the Black Star Square, the protesters brandished placards with inscriptions such as: “Honesty will make Ghana heaven”,Corruption breeds poverty”, “Turn all prisons into hotels and put prisoners on state farms”, “Stop tribal discrimination”, “Freedom of worship is a basic right”, “Fix our education system now” among others.

Some of demonstrators said they are coming from far away Kumasi in the Ashanti region and other parts of the country to pressure political authorities to fix different sectors of the economy.

Some known Ghanaians in the media including Blakk Rasta, and Captain Smart, were seen among the demonstrators.

However some members of the ruling party are pointing fingers at John Mahama, former President of Ghana and the Presidential candidate of the major opposition party NDC who lost to the current President Nana Akufo-Addo in the 2020 general elections for being a sponsor of the FixTheCountry demonstations in the country just to make the government unpopular.
