He will, on Saturday, 12 May 2018, deliver the keynote address at the London Business School’s Africa Business Summit.
On 13 May 2018, the President will also take the opportunity of his vacation to attend the Anglican confirmation ceremony of his grandson, Louis, at his old school, Lancing College, in Sussex.
President Akufo-Addo will return to Ghana on Wednesday, 16th May, 2018, and in his absence, the Vice President, Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, shall, in accordance with Article 60(8) of the Constitution, act in his stead.

I pity you and those who think like you. In this era you still think the president must be in Ghana before something goes on? Then why do we have the Vice President and the appointed ministers? Of what use do you have ministers who are paid by the tax payer? Good leaders put in place mechanisms to get the work done even in their absence so do not exhibit your ignorance on this platform. Whether the President travels out or not government business must go on.
vacation for what? what have u done so far that u are taking vacation? My friend, dont make me angry!!! Stay in Ghana and fix the mess like you promised. Nonsennnse vacation!!!! You this old man. U are making me mad paaaaa
korea, singapore, malaysia, - their leaders did not take vacations to the "COLONIAL MASTER'S COUNTRY" They stayed at HOME AND DEVELOPED. Nana Addo, STAY AT HOME AND FIX GHANA. you shld not be thinking of vacation to London whiles u have a lot to do!!!

The african leaders are totally uselllessss pple! Vacation my fooot!!! This is no time for that. U think Singapore developed by its leaders taking vacation? mr prezident, u are NOT SERIOUS
colonial mentality is what makes African leaders go to the colonial master on "VACATION"
@ Selormking.Go drown your nasty self with your perpetual inferiority complex and your lack of self esteem. What is the meaning of this incoherent babble you have the audacity to post?I hear your kind are demonstrating at Keta against the exploration of oil in your area. Is it okay that oil is extracted in other parts of the country and the revenue used to develop your area and your kids enjoy free education?The denizens of the Western region ;don't you think they are also have concerns about their environment? You people are so backward in your thinking.
