The National Peace Council (NPC) has encouraged Ghanaians to pay attention to the small actions that can contribute to building a peaceful and prosperous nation.
In a statement issued on Thursday, March 6, to commemorate Ghana’s 68th Independence Anniversary, the NPC emphasized the importance of unity and social cohesion in sustaining national development.
The council cited the words of Ghana’s first president, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah: “The forces that unite us are intrinsic and greater than the superimposed influences that keep us apart,” urging citizens to rise above their differences and work together for peace and stability.
“As we Reflect, Review, and Reset our journey as a people with a common destiny, we must recognize that our country’s future, progress, and development depend on how well we build social cohesion and trust among ourselves, our nation, and our neighbors,” part of the statement read.
The NPC also extended warm wishes to all Ghanaians on this historic occasion, noting that the anniversary signifies the country’s dedication and commitment to nation-building.
