Former President John Agyekum Kufuor was among the distinguished guests at Ghana's 68th Independence Day celebration, held at the Jubilee House in Accra.

The statesman's presence added to the significance of the occasion, which brought together political leaders, traditional rulers, and dignitaries to commemorate Ghana's historic liberation from colonial rule.

The event, graced by President John Dramani Mahama, saw national leaders reflecting on Ghana's progress since gaining independence on March 6, 1957.

Kufuor, who served as Ghana's President from 2001 to 2009, remains a respected figure in the country's democratic journey, having overseen economic reforms and infrastructural development during his tenure.
