President John Dramani Mahama has disclosed that the proposed Hajj Village, currently under construction, will not be exclusively for pilgrims travelling to Mecca.
He clarified that the facility will also serve as a transit facility for passengers passing through Kotoka International Airport.
The president stated that the facility would provide much-needed amenities for all travellers, enhancing their transit experience at the airport.
He stressed that the Hajj Village is designed to benefit not only pilgrims but also the general travelling public, ensuring a more convenient and comfortable airport experience for all.
“The facility aligns with our broader goal of ensuring fairness in national policies and making sure that all citizens, regardless of their financial status, can fulfill their spiritual obligations. For years, Ghanaian pilgrims have faced harsh accommodation conditions and physical difficulties before they embark on the holy journey.
“Under the Reset Agenda, the Ghana Airport Company is constructing a transit terminal that will be used as a Hajj Village during the Hajj period and as a comfortable transit center for departures. The transit facility will be available after the Hajj period for other passengers in transit through Kotoka International Airport,” he stated.
