More about Ghana
Politics
According to the constitution that came into force on January 7, 1993 (approved by referendum on April 28, 1992), which guarantees a multi-party system, separation of powers and human and civil rights, Ghana is a presidential republic. Head of state, commander-in-chief of the armed forces and supreme owner of the executive (head of government) is the president, who is endowed with far-reaching powers. He is directly elected for 4 years (re-election possible once). If none of the candidates achieves an absolute majority in the first ballot, a runoff ballot will take place between the two best placed applicants in the second ballot. The President appoints the members of the Cabinet, who must be approved by Parliament. The legislature lies with the unicameral parliament, whose 275 members are elected for 4 years by majority vote. The State Council (25 members representing the regions and appointed by the President) and the National Security Council, made up of members of the armed forces and security forces and members of the government, are advisory bodies to the head of state.
National symbols
The national flag is horizontally striped in the African colors red over yellow over green and carries the five-pointed black star of African freedom in the middle.
The coat of arms was awarded in 1957 by the British Queen Elizabeth II. On the blue escutcheon there is a gold-rimmed green George’s cross as an indication of membership of the Commonwealth with a golden British lion in the middle. The first of the fields created by dividing the cross is occupied by the “staff of language experts” and a ceremonial sword as symbols for the administration. In the second field there is a silver castle over the sea for the national government, the fruit-bearing cocoa tree in the third field indicates the agricultural export products and the gold mine in the fourth field indicates the country’s gold wealth. The upper coat of arms forms a helmet bulge in the flag colors with the gold-rimmed black star of African freedom. Shield holders are two golden eagles. The motto under the coat of arms is “Freedom and Justice”.
The national holiday is March 6, it commemorates the gaining of independence in 1957.
