Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has officially assumed the role of Vice President of Ghana following her swearing-in on January 7, 2025.
The ceremony took place at the iconic Independence Square in Accra, where Chief Justice Her Ladyship Gertrude Torkornoo administered the oath of office.
Prof. Opoku-Agyemang, who served as the running mate to President-elect John Dramani Mahama during the 2024 general elections, has made history as Ghana’s first female Vice President.
Mahama secured a decisive victory over the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to reclaim the presidency for his second term.
Her swearing-in marks a significant moment in Ghana’s political landscape, as Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s extensive experience in education and governance positions her to bring fresh perspectives to national policies.
Her leadership is expected to play a pivotal role in advancing gender equality, education reform, and youth empowerment throughout the country.
