Kumasi Airport to be renamed as ‘Nana Agyeman Prempeh I International Airport’
The Tamale International Airport and Kumasi International Airport will have new names, according to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s announcement.
He announced that the freshly opened Tamale airport will now be known as Yakubu Tali International Airport, and that the Kuamsi International Airport will now be known as Nana Agyeman Prempeh I International Airport.
When giving the State of the Nation speech on Tuesday, February 27, he made this announcement.
“Before then, there a number of important tasks lie 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.
“Mr. Speaker, we stumbled, but we are rising again. We were bruised, but we are healing. We have recovered our footing. We have dusted ourselves off, and now we face tomorrow with confidence. Every day we pray and hope that adversity may spare our families, our
communities and our dear nation. But should we be confronted by misfortune; we must face it like people with a proud history who fight and do not flee. Yenim ko; yen nim adwane. That is the Ghanaian spirit. That is our armour and our shield. This is our ethos.” He said.
