Fix The Country protesters march in Ghana's capital

Several thousand anti-government protesters have marched through the streets of the capital, Accra, to call for action to address the country's economic and social challenges. 

A social media campaign under the slogan "Fix The Country" has gained momentum in recent months. 

President Nana Akufo-Addo's government has introduced new taxes and increased fuel prices. 

Some on the streets criticised the president's decision to build a $200m (£143m) national cathedral - arguing that bigger priorities including education and housing needed to be addressed. 

The protests started in March when a court dismissed an opposition challenge to Mr Akufo-Addo's re-election in December.
