President Kabbah Leaves For Home

Sierra Leonean President Ahmed Tejan Kabbah on Monday bid farewell to President John Agyekum Kufuor at the Castle, Osu after a week's visit.

He expressed appreciation to the generous and kind hospitality of Ghanaians and the vital role, played by Ghanaian soldiers to bring peace and stability to Sierra Leone.

President Kabbah said the few days he stayed in Ghana had further strengthened the existing relations between the two countries, adding; " I have benefited a lot from the experience of your governance and government after my short stay".

President Kufuor said it was an opportune time for President Kabbah to relax, visit some parts of the country and have a feel of the Ghanaian hospitality.

President Kabbah arrived in Accra last Tuesday to participate in the opening of the two-week Peace Conference on Liberia. He also joined Muslims at the Central Mosque, Abbossey Okai to worship last Friday and on Sunday, joined Asanteman to celebrate Akwasidae.

Earlier on Monday morning, President Kabbah visited the Ministry of Defence at Burma camp to express his appreciation to the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) for the vital role they played in the peace process in Sierra Leone.

He is expected to leave Accra for Freetown, Sierra Leone this afternoon.
