This year’s celebration was under the theme “Building Prosperity, Restoring Hope”.
Highlighting on the theme she reiterated that our nation’s direction is set and hope is real.

The 69th Independence Day Anniversary was marked with a quiz competition for six basic schools.
Honourable Gloria Opoku Gyamfi commended the young vibrant students who participated in the quiz, especially the organizers.
She seized the opportunity to urge everyone to put up good behavior and desist from indulging in unscrupulous behavior such as “sakawa”, robbery, drug addiction and trafficking, weed smoking, cheating, examination malpractice, and the violent demonstrations we sometimes hear from other places.
“By putting up good behavior, the chances of achieving your life’s dreams would be high and Ghana in the long run would be the ultimate beneficiary,” she noted.
