Vice President Prof Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang on Monday, December 8, served as the Reviewing Officer for the 46th Ceremonial Change of Guard at the Jubilee House.
The ceremonial Change of Guard, conducted every quarter, represents the formal handover of security duties at the presidency. At this edition, the outgoing detachment from the Ghana Navy officially transferred responsibility to a fresh team from the Ghana Air Force.

The colourful parade highlighted the discipline and precision of the military, drawing participation from servicemen and women, as well as students from Christ the King International School, An-Nadwa Islamic School, Leicester International School, Al Hidaaya Educational Complex, and St Cecilia School Complex.
Also present were the Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah; Chief of Defence Staff, Brigadier General William Agyapong; Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection, Dr Agnes Naa Momo Lartey; Policy Advisor at the Office of the Vice President, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, together with other senior government officials.
