The 47th United States of America President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony comes up January 20, 2025 in Washington DC Capitol.

But something unusual is about to happen on this historical occasion as the United States of America prepares for the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump on January 20. 2025

The tradition of flying U.S.flags at half-staff.

“The death of former President Jimmy Carter , who passed away on December 29, 2024, at the age of 100, has prompted a 30-day national mourning period during which flags are to be flown at half-staff—a period that coincide with the Inauguration Day” of President-elect Donald Trump.

Africa This Week learnt that the President Joe Biden had described the order as “an expression of public sorrow” in honour of the passing away of the 39th USA former President Jimmy Carter, whose state funeral is scheduled for January 9 at the Washington National Cathedral.
