This face...remember it! This man is John Atta Mills, and he is the president elect for Ghana. Like Barack Obama, Atta Mills is expected to make great changes in Ghana. With the discovery of oil in Ghana it is imperative that they have a government that is transparent and inclusive. Corrupt governments have always held African nations back from progressing, and becuase Ghana is known as a peaceful nation, they will be of great example to other African nations and many other countries around the world. Atta Mills has worked very hard to be president elect, with unsuccessful candidacies and recounts for the votes with the current election. This 64 year old earned his PhD in law at the School of Oriental and African Studies in England. He has taught as a professor at the University of Ghana, and contributed to the Hockey Association of Ghana, amongst other associations. His goal and promise to the people is "good governance" with the discovery of oil, and not to establish a corrupt government. His hope is that with good governance Ghana will be able to compete within the global economy, and provide the people with essential social programs for them to achieve properity! All I have to say is a change is coming! Good job Ghana!!!
