I gave you the land for the airport don’t rename it after Yakubu Tali – Ya-Na kick against renaming Tamale Airport

The King of Dagbon, Ya-Na Abukari Mahama II is unhappy with the decision to rename the Tamale Airport. after the late Tolon Naa, Yakubu Tali.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo announced during the State of the Nation Address that the government will rename the Kumasi Airport and the Tamale Airport after their completion.

According to him, the Tamale Airport will be called the Yakubu Tali International Airport.

However, the Office of the Ya-Na believes that naming the Tamale Airport after Yakubu Tali, who was a Tolon-Naa, will not augur well for the people of the Northern Region.

A statement from his outfit indicated that the move will draw the Northern Region into unwanted controversy; something the President is not prepared for.

To the Ya-Na, such honour should be bestowed on the Na-Gbewa.
