Prophet Ebenezer Yiadom, also known as Opambour, has expressed concern with the arrangements for President John Dramani Mahama's inauguration on January 7, 2025. In a social media video, Prophet Opambour questioned the event's organization, specifically the lack of enough shade for President and Vice President Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang during their oath-taking ceremony.

According to Prophet Opambour, the ceremony layout was badly prepared, with both the President and Vice President standing in the blazing sun during the event. He pointed out that even the Chief Justice, who was present at the ceremony, had to bear the scorching sun. He highlighted that the organizers should have provided shade to ensure the comfort of the dignitaries present.

"The organization did not work well. "When the President and his Vice President took their oaths, they were in the sun, which was bad," he said. "The Chief Justice was likewise in the sun. That was one of the things I disliked about the ceremony.

Prophet Opambour also revealed his own comments on the event, adding that when he came home, he took time to praise God for the calm ceremony and for stopping the alleged evil deeds of certain pastors from interfering with it.

"For the time being, I'll only mention this, but I'll address the other issues later," he said, implying that he may express other concerns in the future.

The inauguration ceremony, held in Black Stars Square in Accra, was a watershed moment in Ghana's political history. It marked President Mahama's return to power, having previously served from 2012 to 2016. Several prominent visitors attended the ceremony, including 21 heads of state, three vice presidents, four ministers, and 24 foreign envoys.

Despite Prophet Opambour's criticism, the inauguration was a globally recognized event that highlighted Ghana's peaceful transition of power and its ongoing relevance in African politics.
