Mr Faure Gnassingbe, the Togolese President, arrived to a rousing welcome in Accra on Thursday for a day's state visit.
President John Agyekum Kufuor and his Vice, Alhaji Aliu Mahama were on hand to meet him at the gangway immediately the Presidential jet carrying him and his entourage touched down at the Kotoka International Airport.
He was then escorted to a saluting dais erected in his honour and as the Ghana Army Band struck the national anthems of Ghana and Togo, a 21 gun-salute boomed at the background. President Gnassingbe thereafter inspected a Guard of Honour mounted by three officers and 101 men from the 48 Engineer Regiment of the Ghana Army.
President Kufuor later introduced him to members of his Government. The two Leaders also exchanged greetings with an enthusiastic crowd of Togolese, who treated their President to some beautiful cultural displays.
President Kufuor and President Gnassingbe drove to the Castle where they held talks behind closed doors on bilateral ties.
