“I am so happy (about the 6th March coming to the Volta Region) because, since 1957, we have not witnessed this thing before in the Volta Region. So, witnessing this thing in the Volta Region, precisely the Adaklu district which I come from, I’m happy,” one of the traders told GhanaWeb’s Etsey Atisu.

Another trader from the Central Region said, “I come here just because of the 6th March… I’m hoping for good sales and I trust my Voltarian people, I know they will deliver.”
