Legon Clashes: Vehicle Burnt, Soldiers Called For Reinforcement [Video]

Around midnight of Friday 5th August 2022, some students of Commonwealth Hall and Mensah Sarbah hall clashed on the Legon campus. The fight quickly got serious and the security agencies were called in to calm the situation.

A car that is believed to belong to one of the porters of Sarbah Hall was set ablaze. The Fire Service was there to quench the fire and prevent it from spreading to other nearby properties. The car was burnt beyond repair.

Residents of Sarbah hall are on course to retrieve the Statue of Mensah Sarbah which was stolen by the Vandals. They say the stolen statue means the spirit of the Hall has been taken and must be retrieved at all cost.

Personnel of the Ghana Police Service who were first on the scene, called for military support upon realizing the situation was quickly getting out of hand.

Soldiers and police officers are currently patrolling the campus to bring the clashes under control hopefully before daybreak.
