Über diesen Feiertag

May Day is a national holiday commemorating Ghana's Independence Day, celebrating the country's self-governance achieved following its independence from British colonial rule, declared by Kwame Nkrumah on March 6, 1957. Ghana was the first sub-Saharan African nation to gain this status. The public observance of this holiday generally falls on the following Monday if the actual date is a weekend.
