Feature Article of Wednesday, 7 March 2018Columnist: Ekwow Spio-GarbrahSpio-Garbrah on Ghana's 61st independenceEkwow Spio-GarbrahOn the occasion of Ghana's 61st Anniversary celebration, I wish to congratulate our beloved country, Ghana for its achievements that have enabled it to receive various levels of global recognition, especially for its democratic credentials in recent years. In many parts of the world, including in most of Africa, Ghana’s relative peace and internal harmony are seen as values worthy of emulation. All the fallen soldiers, countrymen and women who died in Service to the nation are fondly remembered on this occasion. After 61 years of political independence, we are yet to see our dear nation become economically independent. This atmosphere of fear is not justified by the numbers of officials who work within the arena of national security.
