President John Dramani Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama has declared July 1 as a National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving.
Speaking at the inauguration of a planning committee for the new national event on Friday, April 25, 2025, he praised the unity that exists among the country’s religious groups.
“One of Ghana’s greatest blessings is the harmony with which we practice our diverse faiths. Christians, Muslims, and traditionalists, we worship differently but work together as one people. This is a national treasure we must never take for granted.
“This is the spirit with which we must move forward. And so, with conviction, reverence, and unity of purpose, I hereby declare Republic Day, the 1st of July each year, as Ghana’s official National Day of Prayer and Thanksgiving,” he declared.
