Good decision
The only credit to Mahama government since taken office. Nothing to show again.
Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine......for instance 15 paracetamol at once. Or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
Good one there! But point of correction! The universities in question were not established in 2019 as the article sought to portray. They were "RENAMED" in 2019 and that is what has been reversed.
Very good correction.
Politrickcians!
Enough of all that naming state institutions after people. We were fed up with all that nonsense.
NDC and propaganda. Your crrection has exposed you as a liar. The universities' councils were sworn in in May 2020 by Napo.
I hope lessons have been learnt.
Some of these unwise decisions only divide the society the more giving room for another violent upheaval. Do not be surprised that many Ghanaians will welcome that bloody change targeting those who benefited from Jun 4th 1979 ...

So Mr. Accra, or was it Tema? Sorry.
If the idea is "idiotic" of Mahama, wasn't it senseless for Akuffo Addo to change the names and replace them with his now useless and decapitated party stalwarts for institutions he didn ...

Changing KNUST to just University of Kumasi is just a matter of time. We will see what happens when power eventually changes hands. NDC has started a process that won’t stop until the total eradication of names from all pub ...

Akuffo monkey adui addo was the most stupid man ever. Gbemelawo.
You jealous ayigwe julc is an idiot of incomprehensible magnitude, psychotic bastard
Oyezo.................e millionx
Open your eyes. We need to move forward. Any Government after JM needs to inherit a solid platform and he is trying to build that.
Improving the credentials of your party is what is important.
This conman will continue to play with your minds, and before you say jack, he has stolen and alot from the country. John Airbus Mahama now even travel to Ho in a hire private Jet and Ghanaians are quiet.
IS THIS THE "24 HOURS ECONOMY" WE WERE PROMISED???. AFTER A WHOLE YEAR IN OFFICE. SHAMELESS PEOPLE, CLEARLY NDC PROPAGANDA LEADERSHIP IS SIMPLY A SCAM SYNDICATE. IS THIS THE BUILDING THE GHANA WE WANT. CLUELESS AND VISIONL ...

NPP never build a university but always naming their past men after those universities. A president build university and you divide them into 5 separated universities and you think , you have done well. NAPO thinking saaaa.
Hopeless, useless, aimless, and brainless Akuffo Addo! He and his criminal Akyem Sakawa Mafia Team... (led by kromfuorhene Ken Ofori-Atta), only know how to steal our monies to go and hide in foreign countries, instead of usi ...

Yes. Please change the airport to Accra international airport. The criminal traitor called Kotoka must be confined to infamy
Let’s maintain kotoka and change Prempeh International Airport to : KUMASI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.. Bring back the republic day instead of founders day.
We will one day Delete the name John Dramani Mahama from our records as our former President. Such a Corrupt Dirty Visionless person's name don't have to be in our history books for children to read.
U Soo stupid
BONANZA BANZA
The best after Nkrumah. Even aimless Akuffo Addo was president .
You and who? Useless git.
Good idea
Long overdue, I support the name change of the Kotoka International Airport to either Accra or Kwame Nkrumah International Airport. Case close.
Why is it a good decision?

Rubish. Instead of resourcing C.K.T-UTAS, your are merely changing the name. A university campus where students compete with goats and donkeys for space is not fit for purpose. The inner roads are untarred and some secomdary ...

NDC is more national in its approach than NPP, how do you name public universities, after party elders and even wanted to add Legon? It was one of the very lows of addo d.
Hateful decisions that do not bring social cohesion. One day Ibrahim Mahama will also be Appiah- Menkanise .For a political party that came out of a violent Coup Detat, you don't always have to remind the victims.
You are a big fooooooooooooool. Those NPP bigmen stood against independence now and were part of those who wrote to the queen in England to delay the indepence as Ghana was not ready. How can they be heroes today for universi ...

Our rush to independence was what let to Nkrumah’s downfall as president. We needed a union government to start with; party politics is filled with hatred and was not the best political system the new nation needed.
Then let's change KNUST too. It's only fair. Because he also was a politician.
They're even lucky to have maintained certain aspects of the renaming by the npp
The brains of NDC Followers are just like that of Cows or Pigs, they don't have any memory. During late Prof Atta Mills/John Mahama regime, most streets & roads were renamed. They only use pro -NDC Followers names, bcoz of th ...

Let it be soooo. Those daya when thieves claim what is not for them but insist we let go because of forgiveness is gone.
These higher institutions name changes depending on current government should stop. There is no global trend in higher institutions name changes and the reasons given are as hollow as the hollow word is. KNUST vs UST changes ...

Me love this. We now have UTAS, USTED, and UBIDS.
Knust will be changed to UST then
Name the roads, streets, halls after your heroes but let the overarching names of public institutions reflect wgat they teach. The names were too long and had no international content.
Your wisdom is deep, Man.
Ghana is full of universities and yet, we are not making any breakthrough in our development efforts. For example, we are unable to do simple things like construct roads despite all the civil engineers trained over the years. ...

Good job! I support this call! This gives it an international reputation and recognition!!!

Good move. Akuffo Addo thought Ghana belongs to him and his Akyem Mafia
Much a do about nothing
What about Kwame Nkrumah? Resetting indeed.
Who established the KNUST? The one who initiated it deserves to be the eponym of it. Even the one who established USD didn't name it after himself. Is only patriots from one political party qualified as names of our state ins ...

KNUST was not established by Nkrumah.
It was established by Asantehene, Agyeman Prempeh II. It was then called Kumasi College of Technology.
JM, change Prempeh International AirPort to Kumasi International Airport.
GOOD NATIONALISTIC MOVE. AT A TIME, NANA ADDO TAUGHT GHANA WILL BE THEIR "AKYEM PERSONAL FAMILY PROPERTY". SHAME ON NANA ADDO. THE NPP BEFORE THE ELECTIONS, TAUGHT THE BILLIONS STOLEN AND THE MILITARY, JUDICIAL, POLICE AND TH ...

There's too much political interference in our public universities in Ghana.
President Mahama is just a stupid idiot
Akuffo Addo wanted to rename the University of Ghana after his uncle J. B. Danquah because Akuffo Addo was the president of Ghana.
I DIDN'T WASTE MY VOTE ON NDC..... THIS IS THE MAIN REASON WHY I VOTED FOR THE NDC.
THOSE STUPIDITY MUST STOP
Are these moves not blind hypocrisy
The name is not what makes a University but the academic output in a long run.
What about our long standing Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology
This move is just to dish ...

This government is doing well, the remaining is on point
How much of the taxpayers money is involved in the change? Could that not be used to improve the conditions in the institutions? When is politics of vindictiveness come to an end?

24 hour economic models at work. Bees at work mmooaa
Will renaming add any new values to the universities? I don't understand why we do this to ourselves as Ghanaians. Why do we always want to undo everything a previous government has done? It's a shame and we must stop this.
Shut up. When your npp was renaming these universities after Npp founders did you criticize or complain? These names are only reverse
The ammendment seeks to:
1. Remove personal names.
2.Reflect the geographical identity of the universities.
3.Strengthen stakeholder engagement and public appeal.
4. Position the universities more broadly within the natio ...

These are some of stupid decisions taken my the NPP - led Nana Addo government. Naming public entities institutions after his part faithfuls who didn't contribute nothing to the state
Alright. Go ahead and change that of KNUST if you have the muscles!
NDC's aim is to undo whatever the previous administration did. Period!
These are some of stupid decisions taken by the NPP - led Nana Addo government. Naming public entities institutions after his party faithfuls who didn't contribute nothing to the state.
Also change the Tamale airport name back to original
This useless and clueless NDC government always harvest where they have not sowed. They never change in shape or in character, always changing names and renaming everything that they can set eyes on. Who should give birth to ...
