President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has made clear his intentions on renaming the Kumasi and Tamale International Airports.
In his last State of the Nation Address in Parliament on Tuesday, February 27, President Akufo-Addo said, the Kumasi International Airport, which will be completed in May 2024, will be named after Nana Agyeman Prempeh I. Which means the airport will be renamed as Nana Agyemang Prempeh I International Airport, while the Tamale Airport will be called the Yakubu Tali International Airport after Yakubu Tali.
President Akufo-Addo stated, “I have one more scheduled date with the House when I would be here to give an accounting of my time in office. By that time, my successor would have been elected, and we would be getting ready for the swearing-in ceremony. The elections will be held peacefully, and the candidate with the credibility to take us to a higher level will win. Let me wish all of us well in the elections on 7th December.”
“Before then, there are a number of important tasks lying ahead of us, one of which will be commissioning the Nana Agyeman Prempeh I International Airport in Kumasi, and naming the recently commissioned airport in Tamale the Yakubu Tali International Airport.”
