International Advisory Board - John Kufuor
 John Agyekum Kufuor was President of Ghana from 7th January 2001 to 7th January 2009. He was elected on the platform of the New Patriotic Party and served two consecutive terms. He was born on December 8, 1938 in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region of Ghana into a family with strong royal antecedents. Mr. Kufuor's period as President was characterised by unprecedented economic growth and political stability. Press freedom and individual liberties flourished and Ghana won plaudits around the world for good governance. President Kufuor served as Chairman of the regional grouping ECOWAS for two consecutive terms from 2003 to 2004, and as Chairman of the African Union in 2007. He received many awards during his presidency and has spent his time since leaving office pursuing the same goals that occupied him in public office: promotion of good governance and economic growth in Africa and conflict resolution. | |
