General News of Friday, 6 February 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe renaming and rebranding of Ghana’s main airport, Kotoka International Airport (KIA), could come with a huge cost, as the proposal has sparked debate over the economic sense of the move. The Government of Ghana is preparing to introduce a bill to change the name of the facility from Kotoka International Airport to Accra International Airport, citing the need to recognise the original landowners of the area. Amid the discussions, questions have emerged about how much the renaming will cost taxpayers. But we also have to bear in mind that it might not be a full-scale rebranding, but a name change,” he stated. He explained that the final cost would depend on whether the exercise is carried out as a complete rebranding or through a phased name change.
