The event was a collaborative launch where World Vision Ghana also used the platform to launch its, 'End Child Marriage Campaign.

The District Director of NCCE, Mr. Christian Ahiawodzi, attributed the country's continued peace and democratic stability to civic education efforts by the NCCE over the years.

Speaking on the theme; "30 Years of Consolidating Constitutional Democracy and Building National Cohesion: The Role of the Ghanaian Child', a Youth Leader, Mr. Joe Soglo charged the pupils to be disciplined and embrace Ghanaian values such as hard work, respect, responsibility, tolerance, truthfulness, patriotism and nationalism and make these values their guiding principles.
