Minister of State for Government Communication, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has debunked claims that taxpayer money is being used to finance the construction of the Hajj Village.
In a post on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Kwakye Ofosu stated: "FACT: The Hajj Village is primarily an airport terminal building for check-in and pilgrim facilitation owned and being built by the Ghana Airport Company.
Not a pesewa of taxpayers' money involved." The Hajj Village, which is being developed by the Ghana Airport Company Limited (GACL), is designed to serve as a dedicated terminal to streamline the check-in and processing of Ghanaian pilgrims traveling to Mecca.
The project aims to enhance the overall pilgrimage experience while ensuring efficiency at the airport.
