Self-proclaimed freedom fighter Ralph St. Williams attended John Mahama’s inauguration dinner on Wednesday, January 8, 2025. His presence at the event has stirred reactions on social media.
St. Williams, who has often claimed neutrality and independence from political parties, was seen interacting with dignitaries and enjoying the event. Many social media users who watched the video of him at the dinner questioned his neutrality, suggesting he might be aligned with the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The activist has been involved in several protests, including one against the Electoral Commission, during which he destroyed posters of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Flagbearer, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia. The incident took place at the National Cathedral construction site last year.
St. Williams tore down posters on wooden structures around the site during a protest. He was later arrested at Kotoka International Airport, which the #FixtheCountry Movement described as a strategy to intimidate activists advocating for transparency and environmental justice.
The dinner on January 8 followed John Dramani Mahama’s swearing-in as Ghana’s 6th President of the Fourth Republic. The ceremony, held on January 7 at the Black Star Square, was led by Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin and Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkonoo.
John Mahama, who previously served as Ghana’s 4th President, returned to power after winning the December 2024 general elections with 6,328,397 votes, representing 56.55% of the total valid votes. His closest opponent, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, polled 4,657,304 votes, or 41.61%.

"Mahama is a Ghanaian president, not a president for NDC… Ralph being there is not wrong at all."
elebra51837821 commented:
"The average Ghanaian is born into either a NPP or NDC dominated family. Neutrality is just a faux. Same as freedom fighters. They're just itching for their party to come power. It's just a bragging rights for most of us to see our parties in power. We have a long way to go."
Lechiboroni reacted:
"Rasta for a reason 😹🤭 getting ready for a government job so that moron went and cut his hair 😂😂 freedom fighters indeed ‼️kyer3."
KSnetn said:
"He is the new President of Ghana now, why is it a problem if Ralph throws his weight behind him with the hopes that he could get some things right, things he has been agitating for and about all this while but the former administration did not pay him any heed? Why?"
