The Minority in Parliament has started an engagement with the Police for another protest for the removal of the governor of the Bank of Ghana Dr. Ernest Addison and his deputies over what it terms corruption in the construction of a new headquarters of the central bank.

Dr. Addison failed to receive the petition of the minority after the first Ocuppy BoG protest.

Addressing the media, Bawku Central MP disclosed the NDC MPs are in an engagement with the Greater Accra Regional Police Command for a return March on 30th July, given what he describes as the mismanagement at the Bank of Ghana.

“I have received an invitation from the police for a meeting at 2:00 this afternoon. That is why I have invited you to know the ongoing processes to get us back on the streets to protest against the Bank of Ghana Governor and demand the removal, his deputies and the Board and have a change in the leadership of the Central Bank so that we can have a change in the direction of the management of the finances of this country.”
