President Jerry John Rawlings has expressed his profound appreciation to Ghanaians for enthusiastically hosting Colonel Muamar Al-Gaddafi, Leader of the Libyan Arab People's Jamahariya who recently visited the country. President Rawlings said the enthusiastic welcome was a true "reflection of the Ghana-Libya and African solidarity and also an expression of the interest of the masses". It is also a "support for the efforts at unity and co-operation amongst all Africans". A statement issued in Accra and signed by Mr John Mahama, Minister of Communications, said the President was most appreciative of the roles played by the entire citizenry, particularly the Chiefs and people from Paga through to Kumasi to Accra and the departure point at Aflao. "The President is also grateful to the Asantehene and Asanteman Council, the security services, drivers and the media, among others, for their significant and wonderful roles in making the visit a success."
