"The Ministry of the Interior in Ghana has officially declared Friday, August 4, 2023, as a Statutory Public Holiday in honour of Founders' Day. This day will be observed throughout the country as a day of significance and remembrance".



"Founders' Day holds historical importance in Ghana as it marks the contributions of successive generations of Ghanaians who played pivotal roles in liberating the country from colonial rule". 


"The decision to designate this day as a public holiday was part of a broader initiative by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who proposed amendments to the Public Holiday Act in 2018".










"The Public Holidays Amendment Bill, 2018, which was presented by Minister of the Interior, Ambrose Dery, led to the cancellation of three existing public holidays and introduced two new holidays." 


As a result, Founders' Day was designated on August 4, while September 21 was set aside as a memorial day for Ghana's first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, in recognition of his significant role in the fight for Ghana's independence on March 6.




The three holidays affected by this amendment were the Republic Holiday, previously observed on July 1, the African Union (AU) Holiday, observed on May 25, and the original Founders' Day, which fell on Kwame Nkrumah's birthday, September 21.


According to the bill's explanation, August 4 was chosen to replace Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Day because it holds historical significance as the day when Ghana's independence movement began in 1947.

KOMENCO LEVEL 400 SHARES HIS STORY 🥰

Image
✍SIR_OJ  As a level 400 student, renting my own room in Komenda town for the second semester was a brand new experience for me. After spending the past few years living on campus, the idea of living independently was both exciting and a little daunting. I was not alone in this transition, as my colleagues had also rented rooms in Komenda town to be closer to campus. Others, for their own ulterior motive, preferred distant areas.  When I first arrived in Komenda to search for a room, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I walked up and down the streets, speaking to landlords and inspecting different properties, alongside my peers who were doing the same. It was a bit overwhelming at first, trying to find the right balance between affordability and quality. But I was determined to find a place that would suit my needs. Adding to the logistical challenge, my belongings were still at the location where I had completed my internship the previous semester. I had to coordinate the tra...
