AN Ayr doctor has been given an international role to protect the interests of Ghanaians in Scotland.

Dr Charles Amarety Aryiku has been commissioned as Scotland's first Honorary Consul-General for Ghana, at a ceremony in Glasgow's City Chambers.

The ceremony was held by His Excellency, the Ghana High Commissioner Professor Kwaku Danso-Boafo.

58-year-old Charles has taken on the role in a voluntary capacity after working in Scotland for many years and living in Ayr for over 20 years.

His home now has a brass plaque which informs people of his new position and a Ghanian flag being flown on the front of his home.
