The transition process is to ensure a smooth process and handover of power to the incoming administration on January 7, 2025.

According to Akufo-Addo, he is committed to the principles of good governance and a peaceful transition “that will strengthen the country’s reputation as a beacon of democracy in Africa.”

Leading the transition team for the incoming John Dramani administration, Julius Debrah has been selected as the Co-Chairperson and will be assisted by Johnson Asiedu Nketia, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, Dr. Callistus Mahama, Dr. Valerie Sawyer, Prof. Kwamena Ahwoi, Dr. Cassiel Ato, Mahama, Goosie Tanoh and Dr. Edward Omane Boamah.

In addition to these appointments, Edward Doe Adjaho has been nominated to serve as a member of the Transitional Advisory Council.

The team, which comprises experienced individuals, was drawn from various sectors, including finance, governance, and public administration reflecting a commitment to efficiency and competence during the transition period.
