About 15 journalists got their questions through the President.

On Wednesday, December 19, the President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo hosted journalists in Ghana at the Jubilee House, the seat of government, to respond to questions on the state of affairs in the country and the performance of his government after almost two years in office.

The event, commonly referred to as the “Presidential Media Encounter,” has become a major highlight on the calendar of the government, media and advocates of democratic governance in Ghana. Today’s event is the second held by the current President within the year and the third since he assumed office in January 2017.

The Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA) says it considers the engagement a crucial exercise that deepens the principles of transparency and accountability, which are key tenets in democratic governance.
