The MD who received the baton from the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Mr Millison Narh, at the High Street in Accra, walked with the decorated cudgel from the traffic light between GCB and the High Courts to the forecourt of the Supreme Court where he handed it over to Sharad Rao, Honorary Legal Advisor to the Commonwealth Games Federation who presented it to the Chief Justice, Mrs Georgina Wood.

The Baton arrived Friday night, January 3, 2014, at Ghana's Kotoka International Airport on a Kenyan Airways flight from Sierra Leone. It was in the company of officials of the Commonwealth games secretariat.
