Gov. Brian Sandoval has arrived in Africa for a trade mission.

His office confirmed Wednesday that the governor had arrived in the West African country of Ghana, and was expected to meet with the U.S. Ambassador to Ghana the following day.

The two-week trip, which is expected to focus on drones, water technology, agriculture and mining, was also scheduled to include time in South Africa.

Earlier this summer, Sandoval went on a trade mission to Spain, where — among other things — he signed an agreement with a provincial leader in Basque Country to collaborate on economic development activities. His other trade mission destinations over the years have included Australia, China, Mexico, Canada, Europe, Peru and Chile.
