Some of the placards read: "Mr President, stop renaming and build your own", "Mr President, we want dams not dugout", "Mr President, where is our one million dollars?" and "NPP is a scam" among others.
The inscription on the placards got the Military and police personnel to seize them from protesters.
A video footage which went viral on social media showed some military officers forcefully taking the placards from the protesters and tore them into pieces.
