As Ghana celebrates its 68th independence anniversary, former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has urged Ghanaians to prioritise peace, unity, and economic progress in order to build a stronger, more prosperous nation.
In a Facebook post on Thursday, March 6, Dr Bawumia reflected on the significance of the day, emphasising the importance of unity in shaping the country’s future.
“I extend my warm wishes to all Ghanaians on this 68th Independence Day. It is my hope that, as citizens of Ghana, we continue to live in peace, united for both political and economic progress, and strengthen our shared heritage,” he wrote.
Reaffirming this year’s theme, “Reflect, Review, Reset,” Dr Bawumia highlighted the need for collective action in driving national development.
“We are one people, one nation with a shared destiny. May our future be filled with happiness, cohesion, and positive transformation,” he added.
This year’s Independence Day celebrations were more subdued, reflecting the country’s current economic challenges.
In contrast to previous years, the event was held at the Jubilee House instead of the Black Star Square.
