After the Presidential inauguration at Independence Square on January 7, 2025, the state hosted a dinner in honour of the new President and Vice President.
At the dinner, President Mahama wore a three-piece agbada while his sons wore suits. The first lady, Lordina Mahama, wore a green kente gown, and Farida Mahama was dressed in an all-black attire. His daughter-in-law also wore a white gown.
During the presidential inauguration dinner, the first family stepped on the dance floor to show some of their dance moves.
President John Mahama and his wife first took the dance floor. The Vice President, Prof Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, and the General Secretary of the NDC, Fiifi Kwetey, later joined them.
The president's children joined their parents on the dance floor later—first, Sharaf Mahama, followed by Farida Mahama and Shahid Mahama. Then, the president’s daughter-in-law, Asma Mahama, also joined the family.
They danced to Amakye Dede’s ‘sokoo na mmaa pe’.
