President John Dramani Mahama is scheduled to mark one year in office today, January 7, with a non-denominational thanksgiving service at the forecourt of Jubilee House in Accra.
The ceremony, scheduled for 8:00 a.m., is expected to bring together religious leaders, senior state officials, members of the diplomatic community, and guests.
Organised under the theme “Resetting. Rebuilding. Renewing.”, the service forms part of activities commemorating the administration’s first anniversary since returning to power.
The event is intended to offer prayers of gratitude and reflect on the government’s direction as it enters its second year.
