In his inaugural address delivered before the seventh parliament of the fourth republic at the Blackstar Square, His Excellency Nana Akufo-Addo acknowledged the sense of patriotism and political maturity of Mahama in the road to the transfer of power.

He stepped into the bridge of national leadership at a delicate moment in the country’s history with the death in office for the first time of a sitting President, the Late President John Atta Mills. He has since steered the leadership of state with conviction. His elegant, dignified acceptance of the verdict of the people on 7th December, 2016, well without doubt receive the approval of history, for it has contributed significantly to the process of democratic consolidation in Ghana.”

Akufo-Addo who served as foreign minister and attorney general in the NPP government that ruled between 2001 and 2009 has duly become the fifth president of the republic after swearing in today.
