Martin Kpebu rallies Ghanaians for part 2 of ‘Ku me Preko’ demonstration

Private legal practitioner, Martin Kpebu, has called on citizens to mass up in their numbers for a demonstration against the Akufo-Addo regime.

In a Facebook post on Tuesday, the avowed government critic stated that the protest is to compel President Akufo-Addo to resign as the head of state.

According to him, the exercise will be a reenactment of the historic 1995 ‘Kumi Pre Ko’ demonstration against the then Rawlings era, where Akufo-Addo played a lead role.

Expressing sympathies for a man who purportedly committed suicide at Kasoa Galilea on the back of the hardship in the country, he urged citizens to support the move.

“Ku me Preko Demo For God and Country! Let’s join the Ku me Preko Demo Reloaded! to force Akufo-Addo to #Resign. Date: Saturday, 5th November 2022. We gather at Obra Spot-Kwame Nkrumah Interchange. Demo begins at 7 am. #FixTheEconomy #StopTheFreeFallOfTheCedi #StopTheLootingBrigade. #KasaoGalilea We cannot fail people like this man from Kasoa Galilea”, he wrote.

The call by Martin Kpebu adds to the scores of public agitations in the midst of the crippling economy.

Currently, Ghana’s economy is reeling under pressure with the local currency, consistently losing its value to the US dollar and other major trading currencies across the globe.

This has sparked widespread calls for the resignation of the Finance Minister, who according to some sections of the populace, has failed woefully in the discharge of his responsibilities.

The economic difficulties have also resulted in what many have described as untold hardship among Ghanaians.

According to the critics, the government has failed woefully in resolving the economic crisis and offering relief to the citizens who are feeling the brunt of the situation.

Meanwhile, President Akufo-Addo has reiterated the commitment of his government to dealing with the prevailing challenges and helping put smiles back on the faces of Ghanaians.

At the moment, Ghana is finalising talks with the International Monetary Fund, in a deal which is expected to stabilise the Cedi and inject some relief into the country’s ailing economy.
