The Ga Mantse, His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, made a grand entrance at Ghana’s 68th Independence Day celebration, held at the Jubilee House in Accra.
Dressed in resplendent traditional regalia, the revered king’s presence added a touch of cultural significance to the national event, which commemorates Ghana’s liberation from colonial rule.
The annual Independence Day celebration brings together national leaders, diplomats, and traditional rulers to honour Ghana’s journey to freedom.
This year’s ceremony, hosted at the seat of government, saw President John Dramani Mahama and other dignitaries acknowledge traditional authorities’ role in nation-building.
King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, who ascended the Ga throne in 2020, has been instrumental in promoting peace, development, and the preservation of Ga culture. His participation in the Independence Day celebration underscores the importance of chieftaincy institutions in national governance and cultural heritage.
The Ga State holds a vital place in Ghana’s history, with Accra, the capital city, serving as the heartbeat of political, economic, and cultural activities. The presence of the Ga Mantse at such a significant event reaffirms the unity between traditional and state leadership.
As Ghana marks 68 years of independence, the convergence of political leaders and traditional rulers symbolises the collective effort required to drive national progress while preserving the country’s rich cultural heritage.
