Following a decisive win in the general elections of 2024, John Dramani Mahama has formally taken office as President of the Republic of Ghana, commencing his second term in office.
On January 7, 2025, a massive gathering of dignitaries, political figures, and residents gathered in Accra’s Black Star Square to witness the historic swearing-in ceremony.
Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo swore in Mahama, the leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), reaffirming his dedication to serving Ghanaians and upholding the Constitution.
His resounding win in the elections held on December 7th gave him a strong mandate from the people and demonstrated their broad trust in his ability to lead.
Heads of state, diplomats, and members of international organisations were among the guests from across the world who attended the ceremony to congratulate Mahama on his return to office.
During the ceremony, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang was sworn in as Ghana’s first female vice president, making history in the process.
Mahama will concentrate on tackling urgent problems like infrastructure development, healthcare, economic recovery, and young unemployment as he begins his second term.
Every Ghanaian should have the chance to prosper in an inclusive political climate, which is the goal of his administration.
Ghana’s reputation as one of the most stable democracies in Africa is further supported by the peaceful inauguration and the seamless transfer of power, both of which are evidence of the country’s robust democratic processes.
