From Ghana with love, Trump’s N__ger Navy, and more | See our top 10 photos from the week here

We absolutely love it when we look back at the week in photographs. This week we have had the rare privilege of 7 days filled mostly with good cheer. President Nana Akufo-Addo was sworn in yesterday as the new Ghanaian President, former minister of enviroment is expectedly having a good time at her new job as a UN Deputy Secretary-General and the Redeemed Christian Church has positioned itself for a lifetime of continuous existence.

Perhaps, the best yet is the news the release of another Chibok girl. See for yourself our top 10 photographs from this week:
