According to the President, the Kumasi International Airport, which will be completed in May 2024, will be renamed Nana Agyeman Prempeh I International Airport, while the Tamale Airport will be called the Yakubu Tali International Airport.

• He announced this during the delivery of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Tuesday, February 27, 2024, in Parliament.

President Akufo-Addo stated, “I have one more scheduled date with the House when I would be here to give an accounting of my time in office. By that time, my successor would have been elected, and we would be getting ready for the swearing-in ceremony. The elections will be held peacefully, and the candidate with the credibility to take us to a higher level will win. Let me wish all of us well in the elections on 7th December.

“Before then, there are a number of important tasks lying 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.”
