Ghana police disperse election protesters with water cannon
Police in Ghana have used water cannon to disperse opposition supporters who are contesting the result of the recent presidential election.
They had gathered outside the headquarters of Ghana’s electoral commission in the capital, Accra, where tyres were set on fire.
The NDC’s candidate, former President John Mahama, lost to the incumbent Nana Akufo-Addo who got just over 51% of the votes.
Similar protests have been held in other regions.
The police said some arrests were made.
