President on Thursday, May 22, 2025, warmly welcomed Vice President Professor back to Ghana at the Jubilee House, following her return from a health trip abroad.
During a briefing at the presidency, President Mahama expressed relief at the return of the vice president, stating that he personally missed her presence, as her absence had complicated his duties, including a trip to Togo that sparked threats of impeachment from the opposition. "I particularly missed you, because even travelling out of the country has been difficult.
They threatened to impeach me just for going to Togo while you were away," he said, prompting laughter in the background.
President Mahama highlighted the success of the recently concluded 120-day social contract program, noting that despite her absence, the government delivered a significant portion of its promises to Ghanaians, building on the groundwork Prof Opoku-Agyemang had laid before her trip. "Everybody said you should've been there, but with all the work you did before you went, we continued, and I think we were able to present to the people of Ghana a significant percentage of the things that we had promised," he stated.
