The Ministry of the Interior has announced that Friday, July 4, 2025, has been declared a public holiday across Ghana.

The declaration is in line with Section 2 of the Public Holidays and Commemorative Days Act, 2021 (Act 601).
The release, signed by Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, urged the general public to observe the holiday nationwide.
This decision effectively creates a long weekend for many Ghanaians, as the holiday falls on a Friday.
