The chiefs and elders of the Oguaa Traditional Council have performed a solemn libation ceremony to invoke blessings for Vice-President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, President John Dramani Mahama, and the nation at large.
Led by the Oguaamanhen, Osabarima Kwesi Atta II, the libation was offered at the Emintsimadze Palace in Cape Coast during a courtesy visit by Prof. Opoku-Agyemang on Tuesday. The traditional rite called on ancestral spirits and divine forces to protect the countrys leaders, guide the government, and ensure peace and prosperity for Ghana.
The act of libation, a ritual deeply rooted in Ghanaian tradition, is a sign of respect, unity, and spiritual protection, a palace source explained.
The Vice-Presidents visit was to express gratitude to the chiefs and people of Cape Coast for their support, which contributed to her historic rise as Ghanas first female Vice-President. The occasion also served to build momentum ahead of the upcoming PANAFEST 2025 and to check on the health of the Omanhen.
