Very good. Simple. The size and length of the runway and it's ability to take wide body aircraft makes it international. People must learn.

Folks NDC call this disgusting warehouse international Airport is just a comedy and creating jokes.I can't believe thing warehouse structure call international structure cost over $100 million dollars.Folks kindly compare this Tamale airport to Obuoase airport that cost $4 million to built.No wander our president John Dramani Mahama is visionless.

Pessimist of the NPP can never see and reason anything good. But it is still a fact that the John Mahama led administration has been good until us and have actually worked a great deal for the successful take off in the next year.

This and many other reasons we must once again give our humble dear President another four years to continue with his good works.

Traditional Satanism is not simply an inversion, but a complete rejection of the images of a
00233244908520particular culture, religion, or philosophy. From there a Satanist uses those images against the ethos itself, that was once his own conditioning. Persons who participate in traditional Satanic masses sometimes experience a king of 'sartori', a sudden enlightenment, to an increase in their own consciousness, and feeling stronger and satisfied because they had broken with the constraining opposites. In other words, at its highest level Satanism uncovers what the ethos of a particular community or society has covered up through images, dogma, words and ideas, returning the individual to the primal chaos out of which 'opposites' were created." ~ Magister Hagur, Temple of Atazoth Office

This is impossible. Ghanaians THINK OF UR FUTURE. NDC is made up of CRI........gangs who are stealing the country's resources.

Wise up. Loans are contracted and projects inflated. Mahama sits unconcern. Naked stealing

I guess you do not know the meaning of an international airport. The Tamale airport is an international airport even if it has flights from there to nearby Burkina Faso. The flight does not have to have Europe as a final destination to be classified as an international airport. Absent any evidence to prove that the airport contract was inflated, you should keep your jaundiced opinions to yourself.

It is funny the way some of us here reason. How on earth can you call a such a step in the right direction shanty.

It is very obvious that you belong the family of talkers who have nothing worth while to give this great nation of ours.

The John Mahama led administration is on track to be the best the nation has and could ever boast of.

The Ho airport is also on board coming, the new international aiport situated at Ningo promises to be a step in the obvious direction.

Great work than Mr. President.

another useless project by this visionless mahama. this airport is going to be an annual airport for hajj. after hajj, no plane will fly again to outside Ghana. the airport will become a dormant airport after hajj. the money used to construct the so called international airport could have been used to construct airport at bolga and Wa.

See that Useless project , the so called International Airport . This is a complete waste of tax payers money . The cost of this village airport can not be justified ,meanwhile how much money will Tamala Aiport make ?? . That's a big question and that's why the airport operation will eventually collapse . These ppl cannot even afford 3 decent meal a day and u talking about flying . They are poor and just want the simple things in life to survive . Ppl in the North don't be fooled & don't get carried away becus this airport will not change ur life positively . Is another crafty way for the greedy NDC to chop money on ur behalf . I can't think far ...& madness

This is waste of money. How many people travel from Tamale to London or Dubai in a week for us to built an airport. What Tamale need is a supersonic railway to transport goods and people to Accra and Kumasi. This will facilitate trade between the north and south. It is not entirely bad to have an airport but railway should be a priority over an airport. This will not benefit many people.
