Ghanaian fashion designer Mathew Agambire, the creative director of the Bondaana fashion industry, has achieved a career milestone by designing and styling President John Mahama for his inauguration ceremony.
The young designer, who has styled the first family for years, has won over many Ghanaians with his latest creation.
President John Dramani Mahama's inaugural outfit, designed by Bondanna, was the biggest fashion moment of 2025, as more than 10 heads of state gathered at Black Star Square to witness the swearing-in ceremony.
Most Africans have commended President John Mahama for his attention to detail and involvement in making the iconic outfit.
Adinkra symbols in President Mahama's inaugural attire
First, the colourful kente cloth symbolises Ghana's rich culture, richness, and tradition, while the predominantly white colour, crucial in Ghanaian culture, signifies triumph.
The Nyame Dua, or "tree of God," is an Adinkra emblem representing God's presence and protection.
Sankofa, which means "to go back for the best," is a way for Mahama to thank Ghanaians for their support and for helping him regain his authority.
Gye Nyame (Except God): This sign depicts God's all-powerful dominance. John Mahama thanks the God he worships.
Ram's horn, or Dwennimmen, represents his power and humility, and he is prepared to use both to serve his homeland.
