Ghana's independence and democracy

Before gaining independence on March 6, 1957, Ghana—then known as the Gold Coast—was under British colonial rule.

Kwame Nkrumah was a central figure in Ghana's independence movement and became the first Prime Minister and President of the country.

Ghana’s independence on March 6, 1957, marked the beginning of a new political era, replacing British colonial rule with self-governance.

In the annals of Ghanaian history, the year 1992 marks a pivotal moment—the return to democratic rule after years of military dictatorship. This significant transition was not merely a change in governance but a testament to the unwavering resolve of the Ghanaian people to reclaim their voice, rights, and destiny.
