President John Dramani Mahama has been honoured in Singapore with a newly named orchid hybrid, "Vanda John Dramani Mahama," during a ceremony at the National Orchid Garden on Wednesday, August 27, 2025.
The tribute, announced by Jubilee House in a statement, forms part of Singapore's "VIP Orchids" tradition, where distinguished leaders and visiting heads of state are recognised with unique orchid hybrids.
As part of his visit to the Singapore Botanic Gardens, President Mahama signed the visitors' book and received a briefing on the garden's history and its role in promoting diplomacy.
Officials noted that orchids, celebrated as symbols of resilience and transformation, represent Singapore's cultural heritage and international friendships.
