President Bola Tinubu will travel to Accra, Ghana, on Monday to attend the inauguration of President-elect John Mahama on January 7, 2025.
Mahama, who previously served as Ghana’s 12th president from 2011 to 2017, was reelected in December 2024. He will succeed President Nana Akufo-Addo, whose tenure spanned from 2017 to 2025.

In a statement, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu’s spokesman, noted that the visit follows an invitation from Mahama, who had earlier met with Tinubu in December.
