Left to me I would renamed this airport after Kwame Nkrumah International Airport..the gateway to afroca and Ghana must be named after thr man who opened the floodgates for the emancipation of all Black inhabited nations in Africa and overseas..I dont understand why gh leaders can't do the right thing. Kotoka's name on our Airport is an eyesore..don't glorify wrongdoing. My nephew a 23yrl.old man believes wrongdoing is the best attribute in life. Waa look. Young Ghana citizens are seeing the name kotoka and are empowered to do bad..where do you think they get the motivation from?

Christmas is here! New year follows a week later; this is the moment for reflection towards a better 2026. If your income pauses today, what practical skill puts cash in your hand immediately? Smartphone repair & accessories is one of the few skills that still pays daily, even in hard times. Phones break every day. People fix them the same day, that's money changing hands fast. Many unemployed people, even those with jobs — are learning this skill quietly to support themselves, or gifting the book to train siblings, relatives, or community youths. Many are buying copies to empower others this season, instead of giving other gifts that finish. GET Chukky Oparandu’s guide - it breaks it down clearly for beginners: repairs, flashing, accessories sales — the skill opens doors into IT careers. No big capital. Just a skill you earn from once you apply it. If you’re planning ahead for 2026, this is one move people are already making. Rush now, Search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or visit selar.co/m/chukky (French edition "Gagnez de l'Argent en Réparant des Téléphones & Tablettes" Available!). Don’t miss his blockbuster career guide:“IT Career: A Roadmap” ,oo6

Kwame Nkrumah international airport or Accra international airport. The two major political parties, NDC and NPP are both scared to make the name change because of their affiliation to Kotoka. The NDC doesn’t want to do anything to offend the Voltarians to lose votes and the NPP orchestrated the 1966 coup with the help of the CIA and so it’s difficult for them to do that.

Kwame Nkrumah name is all over the place and we appreciate all his efforts. it is okay for the names and honours on national items. Accra International Airport is meaningless, and the only naming is that the airport is at or in Accra. the is and serious HISTORICAL behind the Airport and that we cannot erase from our mind. our generation should learn a lesson from it , knowing the name on the airport.

@Kissi, Go to Turkey and you will find the name Mustafa Kemal Ataturk all over the place. Stattues, Airports , Schools etc. There is a reason for that. Bolivia,Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador etc all credit Simon Boliva, one man as the sole founder of all the six countries. Do you have a problem with that?Nkrumah, deserves every praise or honour. that comes to him.

Go and name your village after Kwame Nkrumah. If not for cultism, nothing should be named after that self centered man. Most of the chieftaincy issues with accompanying violence happening in Ghana was originated by Nkrumah

Now, our airport will may probably compete with international airports like, Chinese Airport, Nigeria Airport, UK Airport, America Airport, Togo Airport, Burkina Faso Airport, India Airport, South Africa Airport, Egypt Airport, Israel Airport, Korea Airport, Russia Airport, Ukraine Airport, Ethiopia Airport etc. Stupid and primitive suggesting of name. Airports are not named after country. Is either the city or prominent personalities. Because countries have more than one international airports.

The majority of airports around the world have illustrious Patrons' names attached to them, and Ghana should not be an exception. According to me, an Ewe myself, Kotoka did not deserve to be named after the Accra Airport, because he was not only a coup leader, but he also collaborated with the CIA and other foreign agencies to destabilize and dismantle the national development agenda and progress. Tribalism or nepotism should not influence the naming of our institutions. Kofi Annan, as an illustrious citizen who put Ghana on the global landscape with dignity, deserves to be named the Patron of the National Airport. I appeal to Parliament and the President to seriously consider this proposal. Merry Christmas to all!
