![Unlawful Curfew in Accra](https://www.ghananews247.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Unlawful-Curfew-in-Accra.jpg)
Dear Sir,
Humbly and Respectfully, I will like to respectfully draw your attention to the curfew that was unlawfully imposed on the people of Accra on Monday evening from 7 pm ,by Nii Ayi Bonte the Gbese chief of Accra.
The unlawful imposed curfew actually compelled all traders ,workers and commuters in Accra to rush home after their normal work without any proper reason but rather an order from a public announce system contracted by Nii Ayi Bonte the Gbese chief to send the message out that he (Nii Ayi Bonte the Gbese chief) had a program of purification rites to perform in Accra.
These act as stipulated in our constitution can only be carried out by either the President of the Republic of Ghana or by an order of Parliament after a debate on floor of Parliament with a national security concerns and reason.
Any Member of Parliament can explain to the people of Ghana how the process in Parliament works to obtain a curfew and to imposed a curfew and not just an ordinary person of chief’s order without a permit by going out with a public address system and a microphone to announce a curfew in public.
It is absolutely unlawful and a criminal offense and I respectfully as a concern citizen of Ghana pray to His excellency the President that anyone responsible for the Monday evening unlawfully imposed curfew must be arrested, investigated and prosecuted for such an act of an unlawfully imposed curfew in Accra.
I sincerely call on His excellency the President of the Republic of Ghana, the Speaker of Parliament, All Parliamentarians, Minister for Interior, the minister for National security, the Director BNI , the Inspector General of Police, and the Greater Accra Regional minister to act on this unlawful imposed curfew which resulted in the unlawful blocking of roads in some parts of the capital and the high streets of Accra by some youths carrying sticks and canes and who claimed they were instructed by Nii Ayi Bonte ,the Gbese chief to block the roads causing fear and panic, to compel traders to close their shops at an unusual time and workers had to hurriedly run home after work to leave the streets of Accra by 7pm as by the orders of the unlawfully imposed curfew, that was caused in Accra on Monday evening.
Thank you,
Humbly and Respectfully Signed
