Occupy Julorbi House was a Ghanaian three-day protest which started off as an online protest on the social media platform X formerly Twitter using the hashtag #OccupyJulorbiHouse. The #OccupyJulorbiHouse hashtag is a word play on Occupy and Jubilee House which is Ghana's seat of government. Julor Bi is a phrase coined from Ga, the local language spoken by the people of Accra, Ghana's capital. The phrase, composed of the two Ga words "Julor" and "Bi", meaning Child of a Thief is a loose reference to the ruling government, led by the New Patriotic Party, who the protesters believe have negligently driven the country into a mess.
