March 6 marked 60 years of independence in Ghana. In Accra, Ghana’s capital city, thousands of people took to the streets in celebration. Ghana’s bright green, yellow and red flags adorned every building, street sign and tree. The celebrations also reflected a sense of optimism in Ghana after the election in December 2016 of Nana Akufo-Addo, leader of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), as president and the defeat of John Mahama of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
It was Akufo-Addo’s third attempt at the presidency.
