Ghana’s thirteen President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has ended his tenure after eight years in office.
Akufo-Addo, who has served two terms, is constitutionally barred from seeking re-election, paving the way for a new administration.
As a result, he will no longer occupy the Jubilee House. John Dramani Mahama, officially sworn in as Ghana’s fourteenth president, will succeed Mr Akufo-Addo and occupy the Jubilee House.
As part of the transition process, a video capturing the removal of President Akufo-Addo’s official portrait from the Jubilee House has gone viral.
The clip, which shows a worker carefully taking down the framed photo, has been accompanied by mixed emotions and interpretations from Ghanaians.
