The Borough of Croydon in the United Kingdom organised a national day celebration marking Ghana's 68th Independence anniversary at the Croydon Town Hall, South London on Thursday 6th March.
Ghana holds the distinction of being the first country in sub-Saharan Africa to secure Independence from Britain on March 6, 1957.
After 83 years of British colonial rule, Ghana gained independence, marking a monumental achievement as the first Sub-Saharan African country to break free from British control.
For the people of Ghana, Independence Day holds a special place in their hearts.
