Queen Elizabeth II, who ruled the United Kingdom for 70 years and was a pillar of stability during much of a turbulent century, passed away on Thursday. She was 96. She passed away at Balmoral Castle, her Scottish vacation home, where members of the royal family had hurried to her aid when her health started to deteriorate, according to the palace. She was the only monarch that the majority of Britons have ever known, and her name defines an era: the modern Elizabethan Era. She serves as a link to the nearly extinct generation that fought in World War II. Both for the country and the monarchy, an institution she helped modernize and stabilize through decades of significant societal change and family scandals, the impact of her loss will be enormous and unpredictable. Although the coronation might not happen for months, her 73-year-old son Charles automatically becomes king upon the death of the queen. It is unknown if he will decide to use the name King Charles III or another name. The conflict left an enduring impression on the queen's life. She made her first public broadcast as Princess Elizabeth in 1940 when she was 14 years old, sending a message to kids who had been evacuated to the country or abroad during the war. She remarked, with a mix of stoicism and hope that would reverberate throughout her reign, "We youngsters at home are full of cheer and courage. "We're doing everything we can to support the brave troops, sailors, and airmen. We are also making an effort to carry our fair part of the danger and sorrow associated with war. Every single one of us is aware that everything will work out in the end. Elizabeth has been in charge of a Britain that has recovered from war and lost its empire, entered the European Union and then left it, and changed from an industrial powerhouse to an unreliable 21st-century society since February 6, 1952. 15 different prime ministers, including Winston Churchill and Liz As she grew older and more fragile, she made fewer public appearances and was less well-known during her later years. But even when Britain celebrated her Platinum Jubilee in June 2022 with days of festivities and pageants, she remained firmly in charge of the monarchy and at the heart of public life.
According to Buckingham Palace, the Queen is being monitored by medics at Balmoral after they became concerned for her health. At the Queen's Scottish estate outside Aberdeen, all of the Queen's children have gathered. The doctors for the Queen "are worried for Her Majesty's health following further evaluation this morning and have recommended she remain under medical observation," according to a statement. It continued, "The Queen is comfortable." This kind of announcement from Buckingham Palace is extremely unusual because the institution often declines to comment on the 96-year-old monarch's medical issues because they are regarded as personal. Prince Charles, her son, and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, are staying in Balmoral. Just before 6:00 p.m. BST, her grandson, the Duke of Cambridge, along with his wife Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, and other sons, the Duke of York and the Earl of Wessex, arrived at Aberdeen airport. They traveled around 40 miles in a car by themselves, together, with Prince William, to the Queen's Scottish home (64km). Princess Anne, who is currently staying at Balmoral, was already performing engagements in Scotland. On their first day of school, the Duchess of Cambridge has stayed behind with her kids in Windsor. To go to Balmoral, the Duke of Sussex is taking a separate route. His wife Meghan was not traveling with him, according to a spokesperson. The American couple had To go to Balmoral, the Duke of Sussex is taking a separate route. His wife Meghan was not traveling with him, according to a spokesperson. The American couple had traveled to the UK to take part in a charity event. There are urgent worries about the Queen's health, which have been expressed much more directly than in the past and without any mention of mobility issues. There are also cautions about making assumptions without sufficient evidence, like that she may have fallen. She was also seen grinning as she named Liz Truss as the new prime minister on Tuesday. The fragility of the Queen's health, however, is evident from the last-minute cancellation of what would have only been a virtual gathering of top ministers in the Privy Council. As the House of Commons was hearing the specifics of the government's new plan to assist homes and companies with energy expenses, news of the Queen's illness broke. Nadhim Zahawi, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, entered the Commons and addressed Ms. Truss. The Commons speaker and the front bench of the Labour Party were then given notes. ...
According to the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS), a forthcoming report's conclusions show that 7.9 million Ghanaians aged 6 and older lack basic literacy skills. This means they are unable to read and write with comprehension, the GSS stated in a statement made on September 8 to commemorate World Literacy Day. This number, which is split down into 4.6 million illiterate females and 3.3 million illiterate males, shows that women have historically been at a disadvantage. The survey also reveals that the number of illiterate individuals (15 years and older) increased by 1.2 million during the 2010 and 2021 Population and Housing Censuses (PHC), from 4.3 million in 2010 to 5.5 million in 2021. Three years after the measures on illiteracy included in the Education Strategic Plan (ESP) 2018-2030 went into effect, Ghana has lower levels of adult literacy relative to its comparators (lower middle income and sub-Saharan African countries). The 2021 PHC Thematic Report Brief on Illiteracy in Ghana, which will be published later this month, was made necessary as a result. The research, which focuses on three main areas: trends, patterns, and correlates of illiteracy, gives stakeholders guidance on how to tackle hotspots and drivers of illiteracy in Ghana.
