  1. But in your so-called democracy there is freedom of speech and citizens have every right to demonstrate against governments unwise decisions being imposed upon them.
    The so-called lawyer did not learn his lawwell and I do think that he has forgotten himself and thinking that Ghana is not a democracy but a one party state. Please tell that lawyer to learn proper law and stop his empty headed analysis of the peaceful and legitimate demonstrations o.k.? He is only arrogant but does not know enough!!!.
