The outgoing President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is set to deliver his final State of the Nation Address (SONA).
He will address the nation from Parliament House on Friday, January 3, 2025, ahead of the dissolution of the 8th Parliament.
The President is expected to provide an update on the current state of the country, touching on various sectors of the economy, before handing over office to the newly elected President, John Mahama.
Meanwhile, the 8th Parliament will be dissolved on the night of Monday, January 6, to make way for the inauguration of the 9th Parliament on the same day.
The event will also include the election of the new Speaker of Parliament and its two deputies, who are expected to be sworn into office at midnight.
This is to ensure that the new government, led by John Mahama, can commence work immediately.
