Accra, Jan. 7, GNA - Ghanaians from all walks of life have converged at the Independence Square to witness the swearing-in of Professor John Evans Atta Mills, the third President of the Fourth Republic of Ghana. The whole Square is filled with people adorning NDC t-shirts and other party paraphernalia while others were displaying their skills at riding motorbikes.
The whole Independence Square is draped in the national colours of red, gold and green. A set of huge Fontomfrom drums has also been mounted at the Square. Also, the seats of the President and Vice-President are set and ready for the ceremony.
