Ghana marks her 65 th Independence anniversary celebration today, 6 March 2022.

This year’s Independence Day parade will be held at the Cape Coast Stadium in the Central Region.

The parade will feature selected school children and the security services.

The last time the parade was held was in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ghana became the first sub-Saharan African country to attain independence from the United Kingdom (UK).

The day therefore marks the declaration of independence from the UK on 6 March 1957 by the Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah.

This year’s celebration is on the theme: “Working together; Bouncing Back Better.”

The celebration is  dubbed: “Cape Coast, 2022”.

 The Special Guest for today’s celebration will be the Prime Minister of Barbados, Mia Amor Mottley.
