President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will depart Abuja on Monday, January 6, for Accra, the capital of the Republic of Ghana, to attend the inauguration of President-elect John Dramani Mahama on January 7.
Mahama, who served as the 12th president of Ghana between 2011 and 2017, was reelected in December 2024 to succeed outgoing President Nana Akuffo-Addo (2017-2025).
President Tinubu’s trip to Accra is at the president-elect’s invitation, who had visited the Nigerian leader earlier in December.
Mahama and President Tinubu have a longstanding personal relationship, just like Nigeria and Ghana maintain a longstanding bilateral relationship.
President Tinubu, as Chairman of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government, will join other African leaders at the ceremony.
President Tinubu will be accompanied on the trip by Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, and other senior government officials.
