Tema, Jan. 9, GNA –
Ghanaians on Tuesday called on the National Commission for Civic Education
(NCCE) to give them the necessary education on the importance of national
holidays.
In an interview with
the Ghana Nnews Agency, some residents of Tema said NCCE should have educated
the public before the observation of any of the holidays as most people were
oblivious of the significance of the Constitution day which was observed on
January 7.
“All we know is
the president was sworn into power on January 7, as to why it is a holiday we
do not know,” some indicated, while others said “the Constitution
says after a New year, there should be a holiday”.
They therefore
called on government equip the NCCE to organize to properly educate Ghanaians
on issues of national importance.
