Ghana’s seat of Government has been re-christened 'Jubilee House'.
It may be recalled that, former President John Agyekum Kufuor named the edifice 'Jubilee House' before leaving office.
However the name was reverted to the Flagstaff House by the then ruling party, the NDC, led by the Late Prof Atta Mills when he took office in 2009.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo during Ghana's 60th independence anniversary celebration on 6th March revealed that the name, Flagstaff House will be renamed Jubilee House.
A statement sighted by Peacefmonline.com and signed by the President who is celebrating his 74th birthday today, 29th March, 2018, indicated that “in exercise of the power conferred on the President under article 58 of the Constitution, I, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, President of the Republic, give notice that the seat of the Presidency of Ghana shall, hereafter, be named, known and referred to as Jubilee House, and the property known as Flagstaff House, located on the premises of the Jubilee House, shall be preserved and commemorated as such”.

INTERESTING EDUCATION. SO NOW FLAGSTAFF HOUSE EXIST WITHIN THE COMPOUND OF JUBILEE HOUSE. INFACT I THINK THE NAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN JUBILEE PRESIDENTIAL PALACE. KUDOS NANA FOR THE INTELLIGENT WAY YOU HAVE HANDLED THIS.

NDCFUO KWASEAFUOOOO OBI SI NE DAN NA WOKOTENA MU A WOSE MASESA NE DIN. S3 NYE ***barred word*** A HWAN NA EBEY3 SAA. IF IT IS NOT OUT OF ***barred word*** WHY SHOULD NDC CHANGE THE NAME OF THE BUILDING BUILT BY SOMEBODY ELSE. THE PRESIDENTIAL HOUSE DESERVERVE A GOLDEN DESCRIPTION AND NOT HAIL THE COLONIAL HERITAGE. AFTER ALL GHANA IS A LAND OF GOLD AND THE NAME GOLDEN HOUSE REFLECT THAT IMAGE BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE.. BESIDES, IT WAS NOT BY ACCIDENT, BUT PROVIDENCE THAT GOD BLESS GHANA WITH A THOUGHTFUL GOVERNMENT AT THE GOLDEN JUBILLEE OF GHANA INDIPENCE. THAST BUILDING WAS BUILT TO SYMBOLISE THE ATTAINEMENT OF 5O YEARS INDIPENDENCE. AGYIMIFUO PARTY ALONE WILL DO THAT ***barred word*** THING THAT NDC PUSH MILLS TO DO. THE SPIRITS OF OUR FORE FATHERS CUT SHORT HIS RULE BECAUSE OF ALL SUCH DISGRACE HE WAS PUSH TO DO.
it is important that the Presidency was named the Jublilee House to commemorate the period of our anniversary. it is equally gracious that it was done on the birthday of the President of Ghana.
***barred word*** hole ***barred word*** hole Country this is not the issue that matters, ***barred word*** hole full of ***barred word*** hole people. Trump find another word for us for we are more than ***barred word*** hole people
The practice of publicising the Executive Instruments of the President is welcome but I believe that what is important is to have the reference copy and not the original with signature. Photos can be taken at the signing but public access should be of reference copies, with reference number, etc.
is that what Ghanaians want
Do we need this ? Let concentrate on what matters to the economy that will create jobs.
WE CAN'T BE ***barred word*** ANY LONGER. MR. PRESIDENT, PLEASE DO NOT TRY DIVERTING ATTENTION FROM THE VERY WICKED AGREEMENT YOU'VE SIGNED WITH THIS AMERICANS... THE YOUTH DEY WATCH YOU BIG TIME AND YOU WILL REGRET THIS TACTICS YOU HAVE SOUGHT TO USE..
PEACE FAM ON LINE SHOULD BE CAREFUL. THE HEADLINE GIVEN IS WRONG. IT GIVES THE WRONG IMPRESSION THAT THE WHOLE EDIFICE MADE UP OF THE FLAGSTAFF HOUSE AND THE JUIBILEE HOUSE HAVE ALL BEEN RENAMED. PEACE FM PLEASE COME AGAIN.
