How can Nkrumah name Kotoka airport after Yaa Asantewaa when the Airport only became Kotoka after the overthrow of Nkrumah and the subsequent death of Kotoka. Simply put the airport was called Accra Int. Airport under Nkrumah. He could not have predicted the future name, Kotoka to change it to Yaa Asantewaa. As usual Asante anansis3m.

Your best budget this year is your "Training & Personal Development Budget".Train for better daily income this year - Phones break every day. Smartphone repair & accessories is one of the few skills that still pays daily, even in hard times. People fix them the same day, that's money changing hands fast. Many unemployed people, even those with jobs — are learning this skill quietly to support themselves, or gifting the book to train siblings, relatives, or community youths. Buy copies to empower others. GET Chukky Oparandu’s guide - it breaks it down clearly for beginners: repairs, flashing, accessories sales — the skill opens doors into IT careers. No big capital. Just a skill you earn from once you apply it. If you’re planning ahead for 2026, this is one move people are already making. Rush now, Search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or visit selar.co/m/chukky (French edition "Gagnez de l'Argent en Réparant des Téléphones & Tablettes" Available!). Don’t miss his blockbuster career guide:“IT Career: A Roadmap”

Kwame Nkrumah wasn't selfish, he didn't even think of naming the airport after his own relatives but Yaa Ashantewaa who wasn't from his tribe.

This is just an attempt to propose that the airport should be named after Yaa Asantewa. Keep dreaming. It will never happen.
