Its sad and nauseating. They hijack all the luggage carts and charge you if you demand 1. They tell you it's for Mr. A or Mrs. B. The airport officials are aware but so nothing about it. It's as though they make sales to them. I hear Nigeria is worse but then who are we competing with. Ghanaian officials always put up facilities and ignore their management.
Our airport as a national security facility is indeed insecure.

The begging is complete madness and the aggressive way of begging that is disheartening. You want to use the wash room they beg, immigration they beg, you reach customs they beg, as if is not enough you come out and the car park attendant begging.
Also, management do not accept card payment, always asking for cash in a form of foreign currency.
This doesn’t happen in any serious Airport.

The GAA needs to do something about this. Frequent staff rotations can be part of the solution. Revieing CCTV camera footage daily can also identify some culprits. Above all, education/briefing of staff regularly should be instituted.

As for the toilet cleaners, it has become a daily routine to ask for money as soon as you exit the washroom, the most annoying thing is when they try to lead you to the urinoir as if you can't find your way.
When it comes to the immigration officers in the booths, it's embarrassing to hear them asking, what did you brought for me as soon as you hand your passport to them.
What I usually do is, look at them with a scorn and say, I don't have anything, I've come home to rest, next time I have something I'll give you. I remember when one had to fill in immigration forms before boarding, there were guys who'd intentionally taken possession of the pens provided on the desk, then offer them to you as if it's their personal property and demand money after its use.
Glad no one has to fill in that immigration form prior to landing and before departure, anymore. A bunch of shameless people all over the Accra Airport.

Blame it on the persons running the airport. They've known about this mess for so long, yet don't care to clean it up. There must be warning signs at strategic areas of the airport, warning employees and non-employees that it's unlawful to beg within all areas of the airport. Employees who engage in begging travelers should be fired; non-employees caught begging at the airport should be banned from the airport for life. Those running the airport have absolutely no excuse for ignoring to act on this disgraceful practice.
