A significant security incident unfolded today at the Ghana National Gas Company Limited (GNGCL) headquarters in Accra. A large gathering, believed to be comprised of supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), reportedly attempted to forcibly enter the GNGCL premises.
This action prompted a substantial security response, with both police and military personnel deployed to the scene. Eyewitness accounts describe a confrontation between the gathering and security forces, resulting in warning shots being fired by security personnel in an attempt to disperse the crowd and prevent further escalation.
The situation remains tense, with security forces working to maintain order and control the crowd.
Authorities have yet to release an official statement regarding the incident, the motivations of the gathering, or any potential casualties or arrests. Further updates will be provided as the situation develops and official statements are released.
The incident underscores the need for robust security measures at critical infrastructure facilities, particularly during periods of heightened political activity.
