Opinions vary. While you see him as a traitor, others see him as a liberator! God bless us all.

So what really informed and influenced the decision to name the Airport after Kotoka? K.N.I.A., Kwame Nkrumah international airport doesn't sound bad at all. After all he is the greatest African personality of all time.

It’s not about being nice but being right!! Nkrumah started as a democrat and became a dictator just like Mobutu, Biya, Marcos of the Philippines among others including royals of Europe. Think with you head and not your heart. Kotoka never lined up perceived wrong doers and shot them without trial nor became president and ended doing what he got others summarily killed by sheer hatred and assumed guiltiness but Rawlings, whom you hero worshipped did.

How can you worship Rawlings and hate Kotoka both of whom supposedly acted to protect the state? We will never know what Kotoka may have been but we do know what Rawlings was. One thing cannot be denied though, they both loved the country and risked their lives for it, one died in the cause of it and the other lived for us to see what he could do…

Think with your head not your heart…but then should I be surprised? No…the bootlickers and sycophants are just too many…sadly

WILL THE WHITE MAN OR WOMAN TAKE YOU THE BLACK MONEY MONEY TO BETRAY THEIR COUNTRIES-THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS-NO, NO, NEVER. BUT WE BLACKS ARE UNPATRIOTIC. Whites see US BLACKS AS FOOLS-LITTLE MINDS. WE SOLD OURSELVES INTO SLAVE TRADE. HMMMMM. You have no shame betraying your Country by taking CIA BRIBES. NOW, you see Donald Trump has cancelled ALL THE US AID to the world-but it it affect AFRICA CRUCIALLY -South Africa medication for HIV/AIDS and the many, many causes affecting the Africa continent. The same white man and woman tricking us to BECOME GAY-GAY SEX BROUGHT AID/HIV to the world- The West have FREE HOSPITALS AND MEDICINE but IN AFRICA we have no food to eat-how can we treat our AIDS/HIV people? The white man ONLY WANT TO USE US BLACKS-Teach us their bad attitudes but would NEVER share their technologies with us. Whites DO NOT want us to be like them. They want you to continue and produce the raw materials.

OFEI-You are a damn IDIOT AND A TRAITOR. We BLACKS ARE LITTLE MINDS AND FOOLS- I ASK YOU-WILL A WHITE TAKE YOU BLACK MONKEY MONEY TO BETRAY THEIR COUNTRY? THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS-NO, NO, NEVER. WHITE PEOPLE SEE US BLACKS AS FOOLS AND UNPATRIOTIC- LOOK, BLACKS SOLD THEMSELVES INTO SLAVERY-SLAVE TRADE. What the white man do not like is for us blacks to progress. The whites saw the light in AFRICA shining and they used KOTOKA and others to turn our shining lights-DESTINY BACKWARDS. You see what the white man is doing in the USA- He has cut or suspended USA AID to the World-but that AID comes to Africa. Medication for HIV/AIDS treatment in South Africa most importantly and other African countries including Ghana.

Fuming over senseless things as usual. Would a change of name reduce the price of kenkey and keep the lights on? We are sleeping in darkness is this conman is trying to deflect attention from the real issues.

No black material shines, but Ghana has black star and we are proud of it. You are also proud of it.
Ghan's Black Star is a BAD OMEN, for the nation.
It negatively impact on the nation's progress.
So far as we accepted the back star, so you can also accommodate the name Kotoka international Airport

He may be a traitor to you because he overthrew your darling president who in the eyes of many, at the time, has become a dictator. Go and check history and you will find out Kotoko was seen as a brave liberator who died in ousting a dictator. The name was by an act of parliament not done pronouncement.

A traitor who kicked the arse of a wicked communist, in fact a hopeless one of course because ever since he was kicked out his useless damn fu.ckin party couldn't revived till this day. All we see is a foolish and useless charlatans who tied their intestines around their ugly looking heads with their stupid faces always pouring a silly praises on the hopeless fool that kotoka got rid of. Ass.holes they will remain forlife. We they remove Kotoka's name or not the point is Kotoka kicked their stupid wicked hero ass and he couldn't come back till his fu.ckin demise. KOTOKA WAS A HERO.

Ewes were NOT part of modern Ghana. It is VERY REGRETABLE that Ewes betrayed Dr Kwame Nkrumah who allowed them to be added to Ghana, who educated Kotoka and promoted Kotoka but in the end-the UNPATROITIC EWES collected CIA bribes to betray mother Ghana. Ewes should secede. IT WAS A MONUMENTAL MISTAKE that they were allowed to join Ghana. Akyem Mafia is TRAITORS. They took CIA Bribes to betray mother Ghana. Ken Ofori Atta father was a TRAITOR. They are Nation wreckers. Arresyt him at the Kotoka International Airport for causing financial loss to the State-Ghana. HE BORROWED $13 BILLION AND LOOTED, AND LOOTED WITH AKUFFO ADDO, GABY OTHERRE DARKO AND EDWARD AKUFFO ADDO. THEY ARE THIEVES. You are lying because NAPO is NOT an Ashanti according to the Akan tradition. MAPO mother come from Akyem and so He is an AKYEM. You are a fool. NPP Replace Bawumia and NAPO with Dr Adutwum and Ken Agyapong. The break the 8 years plan of the greedy Akyem Mafia DID NOT WORK. Bawumia is a LOSER. the North of Ghana reject Bawumia. The greatest African of the Century was betrayed by the Akyem Abuakwa Mafia looking for a free lunch and unemployment benefits-J B Danquah. Dr Kwame Nkrumah Statute stands in Tanzania, Kenya and Ethiopia but his own people he fought selflessly for-betrayed him and destroyed his statutes. Very sad-WE ARE IN ECONOMIC SLAVE TRADE NOW. Oh Mother Africa-your children are LOST IN THE WILDERNESS OF UNPATRIOTISM. I ask your foolish AND UNPATRIOTIC Children-WILL A WHITE MAN OR WOMAN COLLECT A BLACK MAN OR WOMAN MONEY TO GO AND OVERTHROW THEIR GOVERNMENT? The ANSWER IS OBVIOUS-NO, NO, NO. Because white people are patriotic and WILL NEVER betray their Nation through Coup Detat.

But this is exactly what J B Danquah and his Akyem Tiny population of Ghana did. J B Danquah was a CIA Agent-passing messages to the Whiteman and woman to receive MONEY. To betray his own country. The white man or woman-will do the opposite. J B Danquah went to the US Embassy in Accra to ask why his FREE LUNCH and UNEMPLOYMENT Benefits from the CIA had stopped? The white man and woman are USERS. This is because when J B Danquah was in prison for plotting to have Dr Kwame Nkrumah assassinated and bombed several times-the White man and woman saw there-he was of NO USE to them-because he was NO MORE ABLE to provide them the information to help overthrow Dr Kwame Nkrumah and so they stopped paying J B Danquah his free LUNCH and Unemployment Benefits.
AFRICA UNITE-BOB MARLEY SAID IT SEVERAL TIMES.
If Africa DO NOT UNITE-We WILL FOREVER BE CLEANING THE WHITE MAN AND WOMAN TOILETS-Our children are economic slaves in the white man and woman country. The white man only want us to produce the raw materials for their added value products from our raw materials to bring them back and sell them to us at ASTRONOMICAL prices. OH AFRICA-OH AFRICA-when are we going to realise that the white man and woman are using us for their own selfish ends.
BLACK PEOPLE ARE DOOMED FOR EVER.
Now the white man and woman are telling us to become GAY-before they give us loans who have to pay back 10 times. I tell you the consequences to being GAY- You get HIV/AIDS for being GAY. But Africa have no medicines or hospitals to treat our sick people. You see the wickedness of the white man and woman. They know that we are FOOLS and we BLACKS always betray ourselves to them. We have no medicines or hospitals to treat our AIDS/HIV people but they want AFRICA to be infested with AIDS/HIV more. Africa have to pay for hospital treatment and medicines. IN the White man or woman countries-Hospitals and medicines are FREE OF CHARGE. They cheat us through TRADE. Take our goods free of charge, take our oils free of charge.
Ghana oil does NOT belong to Ghana, Ghana Gold does not belong to GHANA-They sign extortionate agreements with us and RIP US OFF. All that we receive is small taxation and royalties and that small money is stolen by the Akyem Abuakwa CRIMINALS.
