Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Minister of State for Government Communication, has clarified questions about who pays for the new Hajj Village project. He stated that the Ghana Airport Company funds this work completely through the money it earned itself. The public treasury does not cover any costs for the construction, so taxpayers will not bear any financial burden for this development.
Ofosu explained on social media that the Hajj Village serves mainly as an Airport Terminal Building. Its purpose focuses on check-in services and helping pilgrims prepare for travel. The Ghana Airport Company both funds and manages the entire building process. Not a single cent comes from regular government tax revenue.
Before the President held the official ground-breaking event, someone spoke up about earlier progress. The former Hajj Board Chairman warned officials against claiming full credit for starting the project. He pointed out that builders had begun work during the previous government's time. The difference was that no big ceremony marked the start of construction back then.
