President John Mahama has postponed his nationwide farewell tour which was expected to start today [Tuesday] in the Upper East Region.
He was scheduled to meet traditional and religious leaders as well as regional and constituency executives of his party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), in the region.
It is not clear yet what necessitated the rescheduling and no new date has been set for the tour.
President Mahama’s tour would have continued through the Upper West, Northern, Brong Ahafo, Ashanti, Eastern, Volta, Central and Western Regions.
The tour was expected to end in the Greater Accra Region on Friday, December 30, 2016.
Meanwhile, President Mahama’s last State of the Nation Address in Parliament on may not come off as scheduled.
He was expected in the House on Thursday, December 22 but checks by Citi News suggest that the address has been postponed.
Parliament’s business statement, which normally captures the details of activities of Members of Parliament within the week makes no acknowledgement of the President’s address.
