The Acting Director of Communications at the Flagstaff, Eugene Arhin, has denied that the Flagstaff House, the seat of government, has reverted to the name Jubilee House.

Arhin told the Daily Graphic that contrary to recent media reports, the presidency for now remains the Flagstaff House.

He said a process for changing the name to "Jubilee House" would be initiated and that the public will be informed when the change takes effect.

The seat of government was constructed during President John Agyekum Kufuor's administration as part of the Ghana@50 celebrations, and named Jubilee House

It is sited at the location that used to be called the Flagstaff House.

However, its name was changed to the Flagstaff House when the National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration, under the leadership of the late Professor John Evans Atta Mills, won power in 2009.

President Nana Akufo-Addo has consistently called the seat of the government "Jubilee House".
