President John Evans Atta Mills on Tuesday hosted former President John Agyekum Kufuor and two other former African leaders at the Castle, Osu.

President Mills commended them for their achievements and willingness to continue to place their experiences at the disposal of the African
population.
He said it was prudent that the formers leaders were eager to continue to lend their expertise to support the development agenda of the people, and
assured them of his eagerness to collaborate with them on issues that would enhance the living standards of the people.
President Obasanjo on behalf of his colleagues, said their meeting in Ghana under the aegis of the Club of Madrid for former Heads of State, was to engage in vibrant discussions on an African perspective of the crisis and develop ideas for the development of a humane world.
He said the African leaders being joined in the discussions by Premier Percival James Patterson, former Prime of Minister of Jamaica, were also
engaged in discussions on issues of climate change and globalisation.
