Director of Communications at the presidency, Eugene Arhin, who announced this, said he is expected to resume on November 20.

He disclosed that during his leave, President Akufo-Addo will travel to France to preside over a debate in the French Parliament on November 19.

“He is expected to come back to Ghana on November 20,” he said.

During his absence, the Vice-President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, will act as the President.
