Members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have turned up in their numbers to commemorate the 36th anniversary of the 31st December Revolution day in Ho.
Captured at the Nfodjo Park, venue for the event, were NDC presidential hopefuls, Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah, and Dr. Joshua Alabi.
Party supporters and sympathizers were clad in party colours as they thronged the Nfodjo Park after partaking in a route march as part of the activities for the day.
Former Presidents, John Dramani Mahama and Jerry John Rawlings, the keynote speaker, were in attendance to mark this day with party supporters.
The celebration dubbed: “Uniting around the Principles of Probity, Accountability and Social Justice”, featured the ritual ceremonial wreath laying and lighting of the perpetual flame.
The 31st December Revolution brought the Military Junta, the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) led by then Ft. Lt. J.J Rawlings into power in 1981.
