The Speaker of Parliament, Mr Justice Daniel Francis Annan, on Monday presented two magnificent plaques to the visiting royal couple after the Queen had addressed the House. The Queen received a combination of bronze, gold and silver Adinkra artwork embossed at the base known as the "Treasures of Ashanti".

The Duke was also presented with a bronze artwork of a Ghanaian market woman on a velvet background.

The royal couple flanked by President Jerry John Rawlings and the Speaker then took turns to sign the Visitor's Book.

Among those present were The First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings and Mr James Victor Gbeho, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
