It is reported that the Ghana Police Service has apprehended some 16 individuals in connection to this incident, and a comprehensive investigation is currently underway to ascertain the motives behind the intrusion and identify those responsible.
“The right to free expression and the freedom of the media are key pillars of our democracy and must be fiercely protected,” the statement said. “The Ministry stands with the police and the courts in the conduct of their duties.”
The Ministry also encouraged the media, especially broadcast media show hosts and panellists, to do their utmost to help promote national cohesion even as they exercise their fundamental freedoms.
