The ADC’s timely alerts ensured that the president adhered to Ghana’s official ceremonial etiquette
President John Dramani Mahama has twice been prompted by his Aide-de-Camp (ADC), Abdul Wahab Issah, to observe the national anthem during a recent public function.
Footage from the event shows President Mahama proceeding with the programme and exchanging pleasantries when his personal security officer subtly intervened, reminding him to stand in respect for the national anthem.
On both occasions, the ADC’s timely alerts ensured that the president adhered to Ghana’s official ceremonial etiquette.
In the videos circulating on social media, President Mahama can be seen responding promptly to the ADC’s cues, standing respectfully as the anthem is performed.

The national anthem is a symbol of Ghana’s sovereignty and unity and its observance during official events is mandatory for all dignitaries.
The ADC, responsible for the president’s safety and protocol guidance, acted with precision to ensure that Ghana’s highest office maintained the decorum expected at such functions.
