John Mahama has taken the oath of office as Ghana’s new president in a ceremony attended by world leaders.
The former President was declared winner of the 2024 presidential election on December 8 after defeating his main opponent, Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia.
Mahama, who served as Ghana’s 12th President from 2011 to 2017, found his way back to power through re-election.
The Nigerian president, Bola Tinubu, had on Monday departed Lagos to attend the inauguration.
The event is currently taking place in Accra, the capital of the Republic of Ghana.
