Nana Ofori Owusu, the National Chairman of the Progressive People's Party, has thrown his full weight behind the #OccupyBoG demonstration targeted at the Bank of Ghana (BoG) Governor, Dr. Ernest Addison.
The opposition National Democratic Congress and some Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) including some Ghanaians have embarked on a protest to oust the BoG Governor and his deputies.
The Governor and the deputies are accused of mismanaging the Bank of Ghana.
The protesters led by the Minority in Parliament have forewarned that they won't stop their action unless their demand is heeded.
Speaking on Peace FM's morning show "Kokrokoo", Nana Ofori gave the protesters a pat on the back.
"The protest is at a time that they (BoG) are building new head office; the colossal big monies they are using at the time that the economy isn't going well. All of a sudden, citizens are waking up to their right. Citizens are waking up to the horror that things are not going well. The attack on BoG or the demo against the BoG is in the right direction...I'm in full support of what is happening because it is part of our democratic dispensation; the right of citizens to protest. So, they should protest and make their voices heard."
