The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has announced the suspension of its ongoing nationwide “Thank You Tour” to enable full participation in the upcoming demonstration dubbed the “Save the Judiciary Demo,” scheduled for Monday, May 5, 2025.
According to a report by 3news.com, the party’s National Organiser, Henry Nana Boakye, made this known during an interview on Asaase FM on Friday, May 2, 2025.
He explained that the NPP has decided to redirect its efforts toward mobilising strong support for the demonstration.
“The party intends to suspend the tour so that all of us can be part of this important national exercise. This is bigger than party lines, we are fighting for Ghanaians and the future of our democratic institutions,” he stated.
Nana Boakye also acknowledged the support of the Minority in Parliament for the planned protest.
“It is refreshing to note that the Minority in Parliament has also declared its support for the coalition’s demonstration. The Minority Leader has expressed a strong commitment to the cause, and we believe this united front sends a clear message,” he added.
The demonstration is in response to President John Dramani Mahama’s decision to suspend Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo, following the establishment of a prima facie case in three separate petitions seeking her removal from office.
