A hilarious incident occurred at the commissioning of the new E-GATE at Kotoka International Airport (KIA), where one of the gates failed to open for Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia during the demonstration.
The moment, captured on video, quickly went viral, with many netizens sharing laughs and creating memes about the mishap.
Dr Bawumia, the NPP Presidential candidate who spearheaded the initiative to introduce e-gates at KIA as part of Ghana's digitisation agenda, was conducting a walkthrough of the system, which uses the Ghana Card for immigration clearance.
Despite the minor glitch, the commissioning proceeded successfully, marking a step forward in modernising airport operations.
