Politics of Wednesday, 4 February 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comNew Patriotic Party (NPP) communicator, Ellen Ama Daaku, has criticised the plan by the government to change the name of Ghana’s main international airport, from its current name, Kotoka International Airport (KIA), to the Accra International Airport (AIA). According to Accra-based Angle FM, Ama Daaku threatened that her party, when in government, would also rename national monuments named after the founder of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the late former president Jerry John Rawlings. He stated that a bill will soon be laid before Parliament by the Minister of Transport to rename the country's main international airport from Kotoka International Airport to Accra International Airport. "We are changing the name of our airport from Kotoka International Airport to Accra International Airport. The Accra International Airport bill will also come," he said.
