IDEA praises President Kufuor for democratic
governance leadership
Accra, Nov. 13, Ghanadot/GNA - The
International Institute for Democracy and Electoral
Assistance (IDEA) on Tuesday lauded President John Agyekum
Kufuor for the leadership provided in democratic governance.
"The leadership you have demonstrated is commendable," Mr
Vidar Helgesan, the Secretary-General, said when he led a
delegation to the Castle, Osu.
"It is exciting to be here," he added.
IDEA is an international inter-governmental organisation
with 24-member states from across the world, which promotes
sustainable democracy.
Its Council is made up of Foreign Ministers of member states
and it has selected Accra as the sub-Regional capital of
Africa.
President Kufuor said the activities the organisation was
engaged in would help to restore peace and security to
Africa.
He said he was therefore happy of the choice of Ghana as its
headquarters on the continent.
