President John Dramani Mahama has shared a video of himself paying a surprise visit to all staff of the Jubilee House as he went round personally thanking them for their work and wishing them a happy new year.
In the video, President Mahama met with the Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah, as he visited every part of the Jubilee House to express his gratitude.
His visit started from the security post to the top offices.
President Mahama, during the visit, praised the Jubilee House staff for their work in 2025 and encouraged them to do more in 2026.
In the almost 3-minute video, President Mahama, in a brief remark to some of the staff before he went round greeting other staff members, stated, “2025 has been a successful year for the government. Normally, I’m the face of it, but they don’t know that those who are cooking are the ones cooking the delicious food. I’m just serving the food.
“So, I came to say thank you for the good work you have done and to encourage you, for 2026, to work even harder and to cook more deliciously for the people of Ghana,” he said.
The Jubilee House staff were amazed by the President’s visit, with most of them surprised, but could not hide their joy.
President Mahama invited them for a hug or handshake, as some of them were shy of him.
Some Ghanians reacting to the video stated, “Most of the time, you’ll be watching lovely footage of our President, and you can’t help but smile all along like a MUMU”
“You have indeed redefined the presidency, bringing to it a deeply human face and a rare ethic of service. You exemplify what servant leadership ought to be”, another Facebook user stated.
“Every good dancer knows when to leave the stage, but Mr President, we are not allowing you to leave the stage until we say so. Somebody shout 8 years for Mahama”, a netizen added.
“If, like the Bible is to be written again, Mahama’s story would have appeared in one of the quotations… Happy New Year. Mr President
Leadership is mostly about your personal RELATIONSHIP to your people… in good Director. H.E”, one more Ghanaian wrote.
Additionally, another Ghanaian wrote, “Nice video, at least I can see more youth. Very impressive🥰🥰🥰📹. But why are they all looking tired already on January 7🫢. No Xmas break for them anaaa?
