Europa 12:00 - 03 January 2017

The Vice-President, Kwesi Bekoe Amissah-Arthur, and other high- ranking officials have also cleared their desks as their tenure of office end the night of January 6, 2017.

Ahead of Nana Akufo-Addo’s swearing in on Saturday, January 7, President John Mahama has cleared his office of all belongings to pave way for the new administration.

The Flagstaff House is getting ready to receive the President-elect, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as some minor renovation and beautification works are currently ongoing inside and outside the Flagstaff House.

Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo who won last month’s presidential election with over 5 million votes will occupy his predecessor’s desk at the Flagstaff House (Jubilee House) from January 7, 2017.

It is, however, unclear whether the name of Africa’s 5th most beautiful presidential palace will change after January 7 since the new president had previously raised reservations with its name.
