Christians in Ghana today joined their brothers around the world on Palm Sunday, commemorating the triumphal entry of Jesus Christ to Jerusalem a few days before his arrest and crucifixion..
It is called Palm Sunday because, according to the Gospel, the people placed palm leaves on Jesus' path and greeted them in the same way as he greeted him amidst the cries of Hosanna, hoping that he was the Messiah to bring them peace.
Jesus rode a young donkey and was also greeted by city dwellers with songs and praises, at the time of launching their clothes and on the ground, so that he could ride there as a sign of homage.
