Description and origin of the flag

It was in use from 1964.01.01-1966.02.28. The white stripe was a feature of the flag of the ruling Convention Peoples’ Party. After Kwame Nkrumah was kicked out the older flag was restored.
Stuart Notholt 13 July 1996

This flag is described in [smi75b].

Derived changes

What the ensigns in 1960-1964 (Naval, Air Force, civil at sea, and civil air), when the middle stripe of the national flag was white? I’m sure these ensigns (if they existed previously) were re-legislated — but were they really used?
António Martins, 07 July 1999

I suspect that at least some of the flag might not have been in use in these only two years.

The Air Force flag was created much letter than the 60’s, probably only in 1980’s. Indeed we cannot confirm the existence of the two light-blue ensigns [incl. civ.] in 1964 variants
