Useless health officials! Why didn't you go to the schools and educate the heads of institutions about these things before the D-day? So that will inform the selection of those to participate in the parade and also for them t ...

This child abuse must stop. If anyone made a child stand and march under the sun for hours they would be arrested but somehow when the faceless government does it, it is okay?
That is Ghana,we still believe in that communist way of celebrating independence despite the fact that we claim we moved away from that stupid practice.
Let us be asking ourselves if we are thinking right to have 70 kids col ...

Mahama, you cannot bridge that gap. Why? Because people like you who had wealthy families and are from the North(who had free education) always chose to stay at the South. Most Northners ...

Man, Nkrumah was an akan himself. Kwame Nkrumah is an akan name and Nzema is an akan ethnic group. You are not an akan so stop your bullshit.
There's this old priest who got sick of all the people in his parish who kept confessing to adultery. One Sunday on Independence day, in the pulpit, he said, "if I hear one more person confess to adultery, I'll quit!"
Well, ...

Stop locking your knees. I am a soldier and some of my battles do the same thing . if you lock your knees you faint
That is a fact SPC, but the authority need to provide them with water all the time and some juice to cool them down while they are standing. But first of all they should stop that stupid marching crab.
We will never allow FLAGSTAFF HSE to be flooded with these dwarfs calling themselves NPP
So sad
Hmmm 'GHANA NTI'
Seriously, I think school children should be spared the ordeal of going through the ordeal of staying under the sun every year all in the name of independence anniversary celebration.
CRITICAL OBSERVER are you really a citizen of Ghana? We did this in our school days at Jackson Park and Prince of Wales park in Kumasi.
Mashed kenkey lol
Good medicine,wae.
Animalistic journalismn, you are the only journalist who saw and counted seventy school children as you reported. political journalist, idiot.
why these insult
it's high time we start celebrating this event every four years. At least every government will have the chance of celebrating it once.It will also save us some money,time and all this collapse would stop.
why all this torturing for this poor kids?
OH, OMAN GHANA
Yes no first aid box for schools y wont they faint and still become a berden to health workers .meanwhile they need to rest today.nawa Oooooo mahama government .
was it the National ambulance service or red cross society that took care of he casualties. pls know the defference.
Ghana is free but yet Ghana is not free.
59 years ago, I was a school boy and I remeber that it was at Jackson Park.
Blame that also from the delibrate delay in the coming of officials to the ceremony just to let feel the people how imporant they are. If time is 7 o'clock, all would be there and they would only appear at 10 o'clock just to ...

Ghana is simply visionless. After 59 yrs of independence we are still marching every year under the scorching sun? Aah. If each year we had programmed for a special project to mark each year's Independence day, the lives of ...

Ashantis and their mouth mouth, see how they are falling? Be fit! and stop falling like flowers
We must strengthen ourselves both physically and mentally. We are not strong at all.
these ashantis will die like flies sprayed with akpe
This marching should be stopped for good. It takes too much time from the children lessons and does not bring any value to the children.
