Good News in Ghana

It is sometimes tempting to regard all of as poorly as and Zimbabwe, but there are beacons of hope. The Herald reports that has just sen the Opposition Leader elected President.

It was very close and the party of the incumbent ( was not standing again) had threatened to reject the results, but the President urged them to do so, and the new President has stressed he will be President for all Ghanaians, not just his own supporters.

It is that putting of the national interest ahead of tribal or party interests that is so lacking in much of Africa, and is perhaps the greatest contributor to the brought about by bad governance.
