President John Dramani Mahama is expected to be briefed this week by the National Airline Taskforce he constituted to drive efforts toward the re-establishment of Ghana’s national carrier.
The briefing is expected to present a concrete roadmap for restoring Ghana’s presence in the aviation sector.
President Mahama said reviving a national airline would not only rekindle national pride but also create employment opportunities for pilots, cabin crew, engineers, and other aviation professionals.
He made the remarks on Monday, April 27, during a ceremony at the Accra International Airport, where he arrived to cut sod for the expansion of Gate C1 at Terminal 3 and the construction of a new concourse linking Terminals 2 and 3.
“This week, I’m meeting the task force I set up to work towards the re-establishment of our national airline. I’m looking forward to receiving their presentation outlining the concrete roadmap for Ghana’s flag to fly proudly across Africa and in the global aviation space once again,” he said.
