Ghana--our beloved country--is free forever!</b></i>&quot;<br /><br />There have naturally been reminders of this on television and radio, and for those alien to Ghanaian culture (am unsure how you can be if you&#39;ve been following this blog for almost 4 years now;-) ) there&#39;s a website to find out more:<br />  <br /><a href="http://www.ghana.gov.gh/anniversary/"> <a href="http://www.ghana.gov.gh/anniversary/">[www.ghana.gov.gh]</a> </a><br />-- <br /><br /> <br />culled from:  <a href="http://accradailyphoto.com">[accradailyphoto.com]</a> <br /><br />You can view some of the upcoming and past events here:  <a href="http://www.ghana.gov.gh/anniversary/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=category&amp;layout=blog&amp;id=15&amp;Itemid=84">[www.ghana.gov.gh]</a> <br />  <img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11648048-7286165332214933229?l=ekbensahinghana.blogspot.com' alt='' /> ]]></content>
