The El-wak Keep Fit Club hosted its annual Republic Day walk over the weekend with the theme "Stay Healthy, Stay Wealthy."
Hundreds more participants came from various Accra-based Keep Fit Clubs, as well as the Winneba and Aflao Keep Fit Clubs from the Central and Volta regions, respectively.
It began in the El-Wak Sports Stadium and traveled via Kotobabi, Alajo, Nima, and Maamobi before concluding at the El-Wak Sports Stadium.
Officers from the Ghana Prisons Service and the Ghana Police Service joined them to guarantee that the massive crowd did not cause vehicular gridlock.
Dr. Stephen Bani, Chairman of the Planning Committee, expressed joy that the event had returned after a two-year absence owing to the coronavirus.
Despite its demise as an official holiday, he said Republic Day was still an important day in the country's history, and it was thus vital to commemorate it with a walk to raise awareness about healthy living.
He urged the people to add 30 minutes of exercise into their daily routines or to train at least once a week, as it has been proven by health professionals to increase fitness levels.
