More than 100 people, primarily opposition supporters of President-elect John Mahama, have been arrested by Ghanaian police for engaging in disorderly behavior.
The newly elected president’s supporters who are looking for work are accused of attacking state institutions, robbing properties, and causing disturbances that have harmed some military and police officials.
Because of the delay in reporting the results of Saturday’s elections and disagreements over certain parliamentary outcomes, the angry supporters also set fire to two electoral commission offices.
Mahama has urged on security forces and President Nana Akufo-Addo to “act decisively” in response to the violence and denounced the vandalism.
