President Akufo-Addo’s lawyer, Kow Essuman, has sarcastically expressed disappointment over the #OccupyBoG protestors’ failure to present their petition to Bank of Ghana Governor, Dr Ernest Addison.

The protestors marched all the way from the Obra Spot at the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange to the Bank of Ghana in central Accra.

But on Tuesday, October 3, Bank of Ghana Governor, Dr. Ernest Addison was notably absent when the NDC MPs attempted to present their petition during the #OccupyBoG protest.

Instead, the OccupyBoG protest’s leadership encountered Wing Commander Kwame Asare Boateng (retired) and several bank officials.

They were informed that Dr. Addison was engaged in a meeting with a delegation from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and was unavailable to receive the petition.

Reacting to this development, Lawyer Essuman expressed surprise that the delegation went home with their petition after hours of marching the streets.

He also made mockery of the hundreds of Ghanaians who thronged the streets of Accra to demand the resignation of the Bank of Ghana Governor.
