Since gaining independence in 1957, Ghana has had several presidents. The first president was Kwame Nkrumah, who served from 1957 until he was overthrown in 1966. Subsequent leaders have included military rulers and democratically elected presidents, with the current president, as of my last knowledge update in October 2023, being Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who has been in office since January 2017.
