This is really short sighted!! There are a lot of people who work hard also during the Ramadan!!! Let them have their day of and celebrate this day.
AMEN
This is absolutely unnecessary.Just a political stunt to win muslim votes.I hope a day will be designated as a public holiday for indigenous,ghanaian religions.
Please talk like a Ghanaian but not an alien because if you are a Ghanaian, I don't think this will be new to you.

You she be ashamed of yourself insulting the president of your country. Don't be surprise if your childrent insult you oneday like this cos you thought them to do so
Why dont we replace the 1st of July and replace it with 6th July - Ramadam... What kind of Ghana are we building...
Eid al-Fitr should be codified into law, if it is not already so, to avoid this yearly declaration of it as a national holiday. This should be done to remove politics from this religious holiday.
Ah why do people talk like this. This holiday has existed long ago. Why the complain now? What is politics in this statement. God help Ghana
