Accra: Ever since the Majority in Parliament announced plans by the government to change the name of Ghana's Kotoka International Airport to Accra International Airport, many Ghanaians have shared their views on the matter. Among the notable personalities who have commented on the topic, which has become a national debate, is Ghanaian dancehall musician Stonebwoy.
According to Ghana Web, in a post shared on X on February 4, 2026, Stonebwoy stated that he has no problem with the government changing the name of Kotoka International Airport if it would contribute to the betterment of the country. He mentioned that the reasons for such a change should be clear, politically accurate, and nationalistic. Stonebwoy emphasized that he would support the change if it reflects upliftment and projects a positive narrative about the nation.
Stonebwoy further noted that if the government intends to change the name of the airport, it should be for a compelling reason. He added that Kotoka may have done something positive for the nation, which could be why the airport was named after him. He explained that while he doesn't want to delve deeply into the matter, he believes that no individual can be entirely evil throughout their life and that there must be some good aspects. Therefore, if the name change is to occur, it should be for another good reason.
