While we reflect on the values of Christmas, let us foster the bonds of friendship and work even harder towards building a more prosperous nation in which together we surmount our national challenges to achieve our common aspirations of economic development, social integration and strong democratic values.
Even as we make merry this festive season, Government urges all Ghanaians to do so in moderation. Road users are especially advised to exercise caution while commuting on our roads. Government wishes all Ghanaians a Merry Christmas.
