It was a white elephant kind of project to begin with. Kumasi "international" airport is only 45mins flight from our under-capacity Accra airport. Where's the economic argument that made it such a priority?

One of those meaningless projects that led to excessive borrowing which plunged us into economic crises. It's just like our national cathedral fiasco or 3-tier interchange overkill projects when there are no feeder roads to bring in spoiling tomatoes to the market centers. Overhaul our railway system to take the pressure of bulk transport from the roads. OUR PEOPLE DON'T THINK!

I think, this is the time for the Asantes to show the NPP that we are tired of their jokes! For once, we should show them the exit. I thought they finance minister said the money was ready. They had paid 7 million dollars, and they were going to remit the remaining 2 million in a week's time. This was before the second IMF money arrived. These people are just fooling the Asantes.

There we go again. A country sitting on Gold , Diamonds, oil Timber, Cocoa and other mineral resources are always going on about borrowing to fund infrastructure projects and going with a cap in hand to pay off debt and over borrowing. What the hell is this? Mismanagement , corruption , thievery , incompetence in all sectors. God Help us!!

So your government borrowed all these billions of dollars but couldn't even upgrade that small airport in the NPP strong hold? Compare that with terminal 3 at kotoka?

Take Ashanti Region for a joke, complete all the said projects fully or loose all the votes from the Region period.

Of course, the whole region is a big joke. Give us NPP T-shirt and you are confident of 100% votes. We are in love with the party's colours and the party belongs to Manhyia. We don't need any airport.

You have mismanaged the economy to the state where you can not pay your debt and yet you want to be retained in power.

You never seen anything yet wait till Cheddar sell our country in other to dredge the sea to Kumasi. people talk about our country sitting on Gold , Diamonds, oil Timber, Cocoa and other mineral resources but forgetting that we have to find buyers for those minerals. The country has already used this mineral as collateral for big loans, so nothing left for the next hundreds if not thousands of years to come.

The Motorway Accra to Kumasi is not complete. There is no Railway to Kumasi. There is no need for an Airport when all the money was eaten.

Total nonsense to have a 2e international airport. There is no international airline prepared to fly to Kumasi and there are no connecting flights. Sad waste of money.

This Kumasi Airport issue, I think the President has instructed the finance ministry to release funds for its completion I stand to be corrected. So Kumasi Airport again this man is talking about.

Lol.
This minister is the most confused man alive right now.
I thought DDEP is related for local and internal debts, and so why is mentioning the Paris Club?
We have such idiots and morons running Ghana.

Only a few days ago live on a local TV, he said that even though the president had mentioned in his SONA that the airport would be completed and commissioned in May, he the regional minister assured the Ashanti people that the airport project will be finished by the end of April because all that is left were just minor finishing touches. Now here we are with a different story. Broken promises upon broken promises.
