CitizenGhana Movement known for the demonstration of members to Flagstaff House on July 1, 2014, has called on Ghanaians to fly the national flag as a sign of unity and reconciliation.

The movement also known as Concerned Ghanaians for Responsible Governance (#OccupyFlagstaffHouse) believes that rallying around the flag of Ghana, as a national symbol would go a long way to bring Ghanaians together regardless of party leanings or other usually-divisive persuasions.

A statement issued by George Kojo Anti and Sara Asafu-Adjaye, spokespersons for the movement said:“The political discourse of this country has for far too long been dominated by the projection and protection of political parties with very little mention of Ghana, the nation we love and claim to serve.”

“#FlyTheFlag is therefore aimed at correcting this anomaly and bring Ghanaians together for one main reason – the national course.”

The statement said the #FlyTheFlag would be launched on Tuesday, June 23 and called on Ghanaians to buy and fly the flag of Ghana on their cars, in their offices and in their homes, churches and mosques as a pledge to support Ghana and always put the interests of the nation first.

The CitizenGhana Movement is of the view that everyone who believes in good governance and is committed to the development of Ghana must join the activity.

“The Movement is calling on Ghanaians to fly the flag of Ghana to show support for good governance; for progress; for development and above all for national reconciliation and unity!

“Let us change Ghana and let us move the course of this nation’s history from confrontation to cooperation; from competition to coordinated national development; from propaganda politics to the politics of progress, truth, transparency and honesty.

“We can change Ghana for good and we should do it. All who support this initiative should simply fly the flag now,” the statement said.
