Accra, Ghana – June 17, 2025 – The South South Community in Ghana is set to host one of the year’s most vibrant and inspiring fitness events – the 2025 Community Health Walk – slated for Saturday, June 21, 2025, at the Chisco Hotel Complex, Circle – Accra, starting at exactly 7:00 AM.
With the stirring theme “Health is Wealth”, the walk is far more than a fitness routine – it’s a powerful show of solidarity, culture, and health consciousness by the South South people living in Ghana.
“This is more than a walk – it’s a movement to promote healthy living, strengthen our bond as a people, and showcase the vibrant spirit of the South South Region,” a statement from the Community Executive Committee reads.
The initiative aims to encourage healthy lifestyles, boost community unity, and proudly display the vibrant identity of the South South region– known for its cultural richness and resilience.
Organizers have called on members to come out in large numbers, energized and ready, emphasizing the symbolism behind the event.
“Let’s rise early, lace up our shoes and walk in unity, strength and pride!” the community leaders added.
“Let the streets of Accra feel the rhythm of the South South spirit!”
Participants are expected to wear the official South South Community T-shirt during the walk. Those who haven’t collected theirs are encouraged to contact any of the Community Executives to do so in time.
The walk promises a lively atmosphere filled with music, refreshments, free water, and high spirits. It’s also an opportunity to network, reconnect, and remind members of the unbreakable bond they share as a people.
“Expect music, vibes, refreshments and a powerful sense of togetherness,” the organizing team assures.
“We walk not just for fitness, but for culture, unity and legacy.”
Health professionals have long advocated the benefits of community walks as a way to combat sedentary lifestyles and promote mental well-being. The South South Community Health Walk 2025 aligns with this growing focus on collective wellness and social harmony.
The South South region, made up of vibrant Nigerian states such as Rivers, Bayelsa, Delta, Edo, Akwa Ibom, and Cross River, is known for its strength, resilience, and pride. This walk is a proud reminder of these shared values—even far from home.
“One people. One community. One voice,” is the motto fueling this powerful campaign.
As the countdown continues, anticipation builds across Accra and within the community, with participants preparing to hit the streets with renewed energy and purpose.
So, whether you’re a long-time member or new to the fold, the message is clear: show up strong, walk with pride, and let unity lead the way.
Join the movement. Feel the rhythm. Be the voice.
