Ghana: 68th Independence anniversary characterised by low key celebrations in regions

This  year’s Independence Day anniversary celebra­tion was organised on a low key at the regions following government’s decision to cut cost and make the event brief.

The usual pomp and pageant­ry that characterised the event at the regions and districts levels were absent as most regions held their event at the forecourt of the Regional Coordinating Councils (RCC) with some of the districts organising clean-up exercises to clear their commu­nities of filth.
