Nana Akufo-Addo at the weekend took oath of office as the fifth president of the Fourth Republic of Ghana.

He took over from President John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who lost to the opposition, New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the December 7, 2016 presidential election. 

Akufo-Addo’s emergence to power puts an end to the ‘John oligarchy’ in the country. Since returning to constitutional rule in 1992, all Ghanaian presidents’ first names had  been John; beginning from Jerry John Rawlings, John Agyekum Kufuor and the late Evans John Atta-Mills to John Dramani Mahama.

In a colourful event held at the Black Stars Square in Accra, Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia were sworn-in President and Vice-President respectively. The occasion was witnessed by 15 heads of states, delegations of governments, ex-presidents and eminent personalities from Africa and beyond.
