Protesters rally outside US embassy to demand end to Israeli aggression against PalestiniansSurvival of 1992 Constitution hinges on its holistic review – Majority Leader

Representatives of the Tunisian Network for the Fight against Normalisation, a coalition of civil society organisations, as well as many Tunisian citizens Sunday staged a rally - the eleventh in a row - outside the US embassy in Tunis to demand an end to the aggression against the Palestinian people, particularly in Gaza, and the expulsion of the US ambassador in Tunis. Protesters waved images of Palestinian martyrs and chanted slogans denouncing "US terrorism," the slaughter of children and attacks on hospitals in Gaza. "The US administration is the mastermind of the Zionist attack on Gaza," Dhaou Jalali, member of the network told TAP. Tunisia, known for its unwavering support of the Palestinian cause throughout history, can only contribute to putting end to the US practices by means of expelling its ambassador, especially as this aggression has been raging for over 90 days now and has grown intolerable." "The US is to blame for the slaughter of children in Palestine as it is in Syria, Iraq and Libya," Jalali added. The humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, already under a 16-year Israeli blockade, is deteriorating exponentially, the UN said, with an acute shortage of food, medical supplies and fuel. The Israeli aggression has claimed so far 22,835 lives, the Palestinian health ministry Sunday said. 58,416 sustained injuries.

In a statement to mark the celebration of the Fourth Republican Constitution Day, January 7, Mr Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu urged Ghanaians to summon the will to consummate the process. 'As we commemorate the day set aside to celebrate the genesis of the Fourth Republican Constitution, I salute all Ghanaians, especially, those who participated in crafting, as well as those who have been active in activating, implementing, interpreting, and reviewing the 1992 Constitution,' he said. 'As one people in one nation with a common destiny, it must be our collective strategic imperative to ensure the survival of Constitutionalism. 'Today, January 7, 2024, for me marks 31 continuous years of intimate interaction with the 1992 Constitution, the initial implementation of which, was paradoxically, superintended by an unconstit utional regime.' He said the vast experiences garnered affirm his conviction that all the efforts and attempts at amending and reviewing the Constitution must be consolidated, harmonised and brought to fruition.
