ACCRA, Feb 19 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush arrived in Ghana on Tuesday on the fourth leg of a five-nation tour of Africa aimed at highlighting U.S. support for health, education and democracy in the world's poorest continent.

Air Force One, carrying Bush and his wife Laura, touched down at Accra's Kotoka international airport. In a two-day visit, the U.S. leader is due to meet Ghanaian President John Kufuor on Wednesday before flying on to Liberia. (Reporting by Samuel Elijah; Writing by Daniel Flynn)
