U.S. first lady Melania Trump is meeting over tea with Ghana’s first lady, Rebecca Akufo-Addo.
Mrs. Trump arrived in the West African nation on Tuesday to open her first extended solo international tour. It’s also her first visit to Africa.
A spokeswoman for Mrs. Trump says the first ladies exchanged gifts: a White House tray in a signed leather case for Akufo-Addo and Kente cloth and artifacts for Mrs. Trump.
The first ladies are meeting privately at Ghana’s presidential palace, Jubilee House.
Mrs. Trump is on a five-day tour with planned stops in Malawi, Kenya and Egypt.
Earlier Tuesday she visited a baby clinic in Ghana to highlight her interest in child welfare. She toured wings of the hospital and distributed gifts of teddy bears wrapped in baby blankets.

Welcome to Africa Mrs Trump
Hope she had an amazing time and saw the beautiful continent with its amazing people. It’s always better to experience something than to hear from others.
