Ghana is considering a partnership with Portugal to establish a new national airline, President John Dramani Mahama has revealed.
He made the announcement on Thursday, July 10, 2025, during a ceremony at the Jubilee House in Accra, where he received letters of credence from five newly accredited ambassadors to Ghana. Among them was the Portuguese ambassador, Maria Da Conceição de Sousa Pilar. The others represented Seychelles, Venezuela, Chad, and Gabon.
In his conversation with Ambassador de Sousa Pilar, President Mahama emphasized the importance of strengthening bilateral ties with Portugal, particularly in aviation, trade, and investment.
“We appreciate the fact that the Portuguese national airline flies directly to Accra,” he said. “Ghana itself is trying to reestablish its national airline. At the appropriate time, we will be looking for partners, and if the Portuguese national airline is interested, we could explore a partnership.”
He also noted the broader potential for economic cooperation between Ghana and Portugal, underscoring the need to expand business and investment opportunities between the two nations.
