During his official visit to the Singapore Botanic Gardens, President John Dramani Mahama received a unique honour—a hybrid orchid was named after him. The orchid, officially designated Vanda John Dramani Mahama, was unveiled in a special naming ceremony and now joins the prestigious VIP Orchids Collection at the National Orchid Garden.
This symbolic gesture reflects the strong diplomatic ties between Ghana and Singapore, and places President Mahama among a select group of global leaders commemorated in Singapore’s celebrated orchid naming tradition. Visitors can now admire this elegant floral tribute as part of the garden’s esteemed collection.
