ACCRA, Ghana (AP) – US First Lady Melania Trump is getting ready to have tea with Ghana's first lady Rebecca Akufo-Addo.
Trump arrived in the West African nation on Tuesday to begin her first extended solo international tour. It is also his first visit to Africa.
A spokeswoman for Ms. Trump said the first ladies had exchanged gifts: a White House tray in a leather case signed for Akufo-Addo and Kente clothing and artifacts for Ms. Trump.
The first ladies meet privately at Ghana's presidential palace, Jubilee House.
Trump is on a five-day tour with scheduled stops in Malawi, Kenya and Egypt.
Earlier on Tuesday, she visited a baby clinic in Ghana to highlight her interest in the well-being of the child. She visited the wings of the hospital and handed out stuffed bear gifts wrapped in baby blankets.
