On the 6th of March 1957, Ghana gained independence from its British colonial rulers.
The path to emancipation was marked by many struggles, with many nationals laying their lives for the country's emancipation.
As a result, Ghanaians set aside the 6th of March each year to commemorate its independence and take stock of the country's progress.
This year's event is currently underway in the Volta Region at Adaklu; with hundreds of citizens pouring out in the numbers to mark the occasion.
