Ghana Police files injunction on #DumsorMustStop protest by Yvonne Nelson

Yvonne Nelson’s #DumsorMustStop protest faces uncertainty as the Ghana Police Service files an injunction to halt the demonstration.

This action comes after the Accra Regional Police Command requested that organizers relocate the event and adjust its timing. The protest, aimed at challenging the government’s handling of erratic power supply, is scheduled for Saturday, May 25, 2024.

The Command raised concerns about the initial venue, Revolution Square, due to its proximity to Jubilee House, a designated security zone, suggesting Independence Square as an alternative. They also recommended ending the protest before midnight to reduce security risks.

This move follows a statement by Yvonne Nelson on May 9, announcing the protest from 8:30 am to midnight at Revolution Square, seeking to replicate the impact of the 2015 dumsor protest.

Details on the injunction remain unclear as this news breaks, but the ongoing power outages, dubbed “dumsor,” continue to disrupt life and business, worsening in 2024.

Government officials deny a return of “dumsor,” but public sentiment strongly recalls the 2015 crisis.

In a discussion on United Showbiz, Habiba stated she would not participate in the protest, calling it a waste of time.
