Accra, July 11, GNA - Professor Alex Kwapong, Former Chairman of the Council of State, on Monday signed the book of condolence opened at the British High Commission in Accra following the July 7 explosions on public transport systems in Britain.

"I am very sad. Those involved were not only British but of many nationalities." Prof Kwapong told the Ghana News Agency in Accra.

"All Ghanaians, extend our deepest condolence to Britain." When the GNA left the Commission around 1100 hours on Monday, 10 people including diplomats and country directors of British firms had signed the book, which was opened last Friday.
