Ghana government under kwasea kufour never paid for credit for tickets the extended to them resulting in massive debt added to debt they had originally. The corrupt kufour government decided to float a new airline with airwest of the US which had no international experience. They borrowed US$ 4 million from SSNIT to start. I don't believe SSNIT was ever paid back before the new airline became bankrupt

Where are all the shares and properties(houses, offices etc) Ghana Airways owned home and broad.

People think, that is what our honourable leaders wanted to share.

Let us face facts. The long stay of JJ Rawling in office and his rifts with the west was the main cause of our losing the Railways, Ghana Airways and The Black Star Line as they struggled for a long time under the Rawlings long stay. He did us very huge harm and should have stayed for only 8years, We were enemies of the western world and endured lots of sanctions. Rawling was good but the long stay erased the gains of the revolution. President Kuffour could not save our country as we were sliding fast.

Bullshit! When management and workers use national transportation lines as their private cargo carriers with no regard to the paying public and staff's and their relatives also ride free, you don't blame Rawlings!

Grand theft and mismanagement in Ghana airways went on for years , yes the staff sold tickets in organized syndicates , I was once on my way to a BA travel agent to purchase a ticket for Accra , when I met a gentleman who told me he had just purchased a much cheaper Ghana airways ticket. He showed me barbershop where if I left money with my details a Ghana airways ticket would be ready within 8 hours . It was the norm , and many other so called black economy practices. We will never change people are busy scamming our own citizens £12000 for work visas which they have no right whatsoever to do.

The lesson here is to keep useless incompetent and greedy politicians out of any commercial activity if you want it to succeed. Goil is another state controlled entity that is about to collapse. BOST and TOR are other examples. Useless CEO’s loot the company and then tell round to tell us they are making profits.

The lesson is to keep Ghanaians off management positions in just about every institution in this country since the large majority comes with the instincts, aims and objectives of a thief.

When Richard Condomnless Anani stole Ghana Airways' $100,000.00 for his American girlfriend Alex O'brien, the lady warned against vetting him by sending a letter to the parliament but thief Kufuor still closed eyes over this and vetted him with a clean pass. The crooked man was who jailed others for financial loss!

Somehow, I think these Airline management overseers were either negligent or did not foresee the competition coming up. They should ben held accountable.
