John Dramani Mahama was inaugurated today as the President of Ghana, marking his third term in office amid significant economic challenges.
The swearing-in ceremony took place at Accra’s Black Star Square, attended by national leaders, foreign dignitaries, and thousands of citizens.
In his inaugural address, President Mahama emphasized his commitment to revitalizing Ghana’s economy, pledging to tackle issues such as corruption, unemployment, and inflation.
He also highlighted plans to reform the cocoa sector and restructure the state regulator to enhance efficiency and support growth in this vital industry.
Mahama’s return to the presidency follows his victory in the December 7 election, where he secured a significant majority, reflecting the public’s desire for change amid the country’s worst economic crisis in a generation.
His administration faces the immediate task of addressing the cost-of-living crisis and restoring public trust through transparent governance and effective economic policies.
The peaceful transition of power reinforces Ghana’s reputation as a stable democracy in West Africa, a region often troubled by political instability.
Citizens and international observers alike are hopeful that President Mahama’s leadership will steer the nation toward economic recovery and sustainable development.
