Government to Construct Strategic Airport to Serve Central, Western Regions – Akufo-Addo
President Akufo-Addo has disclosed that a committee established by his government is working on a proposal to establish an airport which will be strategically located between the Central and Western Regions to serve their air travel needs.
The President made this known on Tuesday 10 May 2022, when he addressed the Paramount Chief of Oguaa Traditional Area, Osaberima Kwesi Atta II, and his delegation at the Jubilee House when they paid a courtesy call on him.
President Akufo-Addo in response to Osaberima Kwesi Atta II’s request reminding him of the promise his administration made to the people of Cape Coast to build an international airport in region, noted that the current proposal he has been briefed on by the Minister for Transport, is the building of an airport that will meet the travel needs of both regions instead of constructing two airports, that is, one in each region.
