"John, as I reflect on our beautiful journey over the last 32 years together, my heart is filled with gratitude for the love, support, and commitment we've poured into our marriage and family."

This was the opening statement of a beautiful message penned and published by Lordina Mahama, the wife of former president John Dramani Mahama, on Facebook as the couple celebrates 32 years of love and marriage today.

The former first lady lauded Mahama for his excellent ability to execute his duties seamlessly in both his private and personal lives.

"Allow me to commend you for your unwavering love, wisdom, and ability to balance your public life with your family responsibilities. Your dedication to our family, especially in nurturing our home, is a testament to the leadership qualities you so often exemplify in your public service," parts of Lordina Mahama's message on Facebook read.

Touching on why their love life and marriage over the last three decades have been beautiful, lovely, and productive, Lordina Mahama mentioned that their love story is built on faith and the love of God.

She wrote, "As we celebrate this special day, let me share a verse that beautifully encapsulates the strength of our home: 'Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labour in vain' (Psalm 127:1). With faith at the foundation of our relationship, we have built a loving and nurturing environment for our children, and I am always proud of what we have accomplished together."
