All domestic airlines in Ghana have cancelled their flights due to bad weather, local media reported Monday.
A source at the airport told local radio StarrFMonline.com that this development had rendered tens of passengers stranded at the domestic terminal of the Kotoka International Airport (KIA).
Some airlines last week suspended their flights over similar climatic conditions.
Principal meteorological officer Muller Siameh in an earlier interview told Starr News: “Visibility is 800 metres and less than 1,000 metres, which is very bad and is not good for landing or taking off. It means that we have a lot of dust in the atmosphere which is obscuring visibility, and it is not going to be any better soon.”
Siameh warned drivers and pilots to be wary of the foggy weather being experienced in the country.
