Lead Convenor of the Democracy Hub, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, became a subject of discussion after he stole a police towing car key and threw it away during an anti-galamsey protest in Accra on September 21, 2024.

During the protest, which aimed to fight against illegal mining in the country, the demonstrators blocked the road with a vehicle carrying foodstuffs. As a result, the police brought in a towing vehicle to carry it away.

Oliver was captured on camera secretly removing the car key and running with it to throw it away.

After the incident, the police ordered his arrest. Oliver then signalled a motorbike to carry him away from the scene, accompanied by some protesters.

Meanwhile, some of the demonstrators, including Oliver, have been remanded by the court after the police declared him wanted and finally arrested him along with others.

This is how Oliver Vormawor escaped from the crime scene in typical rambo style until he was declared wanted. The whole criminal conduct was well-planned and executed. Yet, JM & his running mate say Vormawor did no wrong because he was working for them. Disgraceful! pic.twitter.com/g6Jiarrozm
