June 4th is an annual event prominent on the NDC’s calendar, celebrated to mark Ghana’s 1979 Revolution meant to awaken the conscience of the Nation and imbibe in the citizenry the principles of probity and accountability.
A press release signed by Sorkpa K. Agbleze, the Volta Regional Communications Officer called on the general public to join the NDC and actively participate in this historic event in Hohoe.
