Today marks exactly 64 years since Ghana gained independence.
This year, however, the annual celebration was devoid of the usual military and school parade due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Again, the annual celebration which is often held at the Independence Square took place at the Jubilee House per the directives of the Office of the President.
The national event that lasted about an hour saw President Akufo-Addo address the nation.
