Security chiefs salute during independence day celebrations at the Jubilee House on March 6, 2025, in Accra, Ghana. Ghana, formerly known as the Gold Coast colony, today marks 68 years since it became the first sub-Saharan nation to gain independence, breaking free from British rule in 1957. In his remarks at the celebration, the president lamented Ghana's increased dependence on foreign aid traced back to a 1966 coup and called for bold leadership to break the cycle, according to published reports.
