sworn in as Ghana's president on Saturday in a ceremony attended by dozens of
African leaders, sealing a rare peaceful transfer of
power in a region plagued
by political crises.
Akufo-Addo, 72, a
former opposition leader, defeated incumbent John Dramani Mahama in elections a
month ago.
The major cocoa and
gold exporter is half-way through a three-year aid program with the
International Monetary Fund to fix an economy dogged by high public debt and
inflation.
