Ghanaian businessman Ibrahim Mahama got social media talking as he arrived at the Black Star Square in Accra on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, to witness his brother John Mahama’s inauguration.
John Dramani Mahama was sworn in as the 14th president of Ghana following his victory in the December 7 presidential elections over the New Patriotic Party’s candidate and outgoing Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, in what is regarded as a remarkable political comeback.
Mahama also inked his name in the history books as the first president to serve non-consecutive terms as the country’s leader in the fourth republic following his first term from 2012 to 2016.
At the same inauguration event, Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang was also sworn in as the first female Vice President of Ghana.
The event was attended by some high-profile political leaders from Ghana and the African continent, including outgoing President William Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, John Kofi Agyekum Kufuor, Nigeria’s president Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Rwanda’s president Paul Kagame.
