NINETEEN students from the Wheelock College, Boston, Massachusetts in the United States, currently on an educational tour of Ghana, at the weekend called on the Eastern Regional Minister, Mr Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, at his Koforidua residence.
Dr Shirley Malone-Fenner, the Dean of the Science Faculty of the college who led the students, expressed the group’s appreciation for the country’s democratic process.
She said their few days’ stay in the country had enabled them to be acquainted with the hospitality of Ghanaians and the indigenous culture which would be beneficial to the students.
Dr Malone-Fenner thanked Mr Ofosu Ampofo for hosting them and added that such a wonderful reception would forever be on their minds.
The regional minister briefed the visitors about the system of political administration in the country, the indigenous culture, tourist attractions, economic activities, and the cultivation of food and cash crops such as cocoa.
The group later visited the Basco Orphanage at Suhum where they took the inmates through some lessons.
