Ghana Independence Day 2024

Google Dooles 06.03.2024 02:15  Date: March 6, 2024 Today’s Doodle celebrates Ghana’s Independence. On this day in 1957, Ghana became the first African country in sub-Saharan Africa to officially become a free nation. Each year on March 6, schools and businesses close as people flood the streets for parades and carnivals. Ghana’s national flag waving can be found waving throughout the nation — like the one in today’s Doodle. The red, yellow, and green tricolor with a black star in the middle represents independence, wealth, and the country’s forests and farms. Highlife music fills the air as school children and military members parade through Ghana’s major cities. It’s popular for families to prepare traditional dishes like waakye or jollof rice . Fireworks splash across Ghana’s skylines at night as people wind down from celebrations. Happy Independence Day, Ghana! Location: Tags:
