Facts about Adinkra: The Third Republic: When cocoa prices fell in 1970 so did the value of the Ghanaian currency, the cedi. In 1976 after surviving the rise and fall of two military factions a drought moved masses of Ghanaians forward to the prospering nation of Nigeria. In 1979 Ghana, still struggling with rebellious military factions and declining cocoa prices established a presidential system called the Third Republic and seated Dr.Hilla Limann as the president on June 18th, 1979.
