In a historic ceremony held at the Black Star Square in Accra on January 7, 2025, John Dramani Mahama has been sworn in as Ghana’s 6th President.
The event marks Mahama’s return to the presidency after a decisive victory in the December 2024 elections.
The inauguration was attended by a diverse gathering of dignitaries, including 21 heads of state, three vice presidents, four ministers, and 24 envoys.
The atmosphere was charged with optimism and a renewed sense of purpose as Mahama took the oath of office, pledging to lead the nation towards economic recovery, social development, and national unity.
The ceremony also saw the swearing-in of Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as Ghana’s first female Vice President, a milestone widely celebrated as a significant step towards gender equality in leadership.
As Mahama begins his term, his administration is expected to focus on addressing key issues such as economic stability, healthcare, and education. The new government faces the formidable task of restoring public trust and delivering on campaign promises.
The inauguration was a celebration of Ghana’s democratic values and a testament to the progress made towards unity and inclusivity. As the nation looks forward to a new chapter under Mahama’s leadership, there is a collective hope for a brighter and more prosperous future.
