The day is designated a public holiday to mark the coming into effect of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution and the birth of the Fourth Republic. “I think the NCCE and other relevant stakeholders should join forces to sensitize members of the public so that they will know why the day is worth celebrating,” he added. Mr Mohammed Fugu, another Journalist with Tamale Office of the Graphic Communication Group leading newspaper, Daily Graphic, was of the opinion that the Day could be marked without being declared a public holiday. “The day should be a working day to increase productivity in the country,” he said.
