The Ministry of Aviation in conjunction with the Ghana Airports Company Limited and the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority on Tuesday opened the Wa Airport for commencement of commercial flights.
And immediately, the Africa World Airlines has begun operating from Wa to Accra and Tamale thrice a week. The Western Regional Minister, Mr Kwabena Okyere Darko Mensah, has called on investors to take advantage of the tourism potentials in the region.
At this year’s Aviation and Tourism Conference held in Takoradi in the Western Region last Thursday, the minister described the geographical position of the region as “appetising and inviting” enough to goad tourists and potential investors looking for suitable investment destinations. As part of the customer service week on the theme “Service is magical” the Chamber for Tourism Industry Ghana has trained the General Managers of Ghana’s 50 top hotels in Ghana. Out of every 11 people employed in the world, 1 person is from the tourism industry including hospitality. At the customer service masterclass, more than 85 percent of all participants agreed the major challenge for the hotel industry today is customer service.
Mr. Otchere-Darko wondered whether the Ghana’s Foreign Ministry can also warn Ghanaians traveling to the US and UK to be careful over terrorism attacks in those countries. ".. there has been real terrorist attacks in both the UK and the US but there has been none in Ghana, wondering why the UK continued to warn people against perceived terrorist attacks in Ghana when it continued to suffer real attacks. Source: DailyGudeNetwork .com - Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, a private legal practitioner and a member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has subtly exposed the ‘hypocrisy’ of the United Kingdom (UK) on terrorism.
It would be recalled that the UK recently warned British citizens of likely terror attacks in Ghana. The warning came as the UK updated its travel advice. The United States (US) Ambassador to Ghana, Mrs Stephanie S. Sullivan has said that she was of the hoped that the public would have a renewed spirit to learn more about African-American history and its immense contributions in shaping not only the US but Ghana and beyond.
“We, in Ghana, will ensure that the focus of activities commemorating the arrival of the first African slaves in Virginia showcases the achievements, creativity, ingenuity and resilience of the African peoples through the ages’ Africans should never again permit themselves to be subjected to the dehumanising conditions under which slavery was carried out, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo said on Monday.
He said Africans ought to strengthen their commitment to ensuring that that blot on the Continent's history did not repeat itself. Ghana's embassy in France as a result of evolution is going paperless and cashless as digitization has come to stay in the helms of affairs in the government of Ghana.

Work on Accra-Nsawam rail line has resumed weeks after it was temporarily halted because of activities of encroachers.
The activities of the encroachers, who included sand winners, had compromised the structural integrity of the existing facility, leaving the Ghana Railways Company Limited (GRCL) with no option but to reconstruct new ones. Arrangements have been made to get onboard rail workers from Takoradi to facilitate the reconstruction work which is expected to be completed within three weeks.
