    Farmers day is not a public holiday, but it always on the first Friday of Dec every year. I kind of agree with you with your proposal like May Day, Founder's etc should be celebrated on Fridays

    Friday is a special day for Muslims in Ghana. Am beginning to wonder if these changes are being done to satisfy our Muslim brothers to perform their worship rites. Just asking?
