Director-General, GCAA delivery his remarks at the 40th<\/sup> Anniversary Conference<\/p>\n

The Ghana Civil Aviation Authority has held a high-level conference at its headquarters in Accra as part of activities marking its 40th anniversary celebrations, with industry leaders calling for stronger collaboration, innovation and practical reforms to transform Ghana\u2019s aviation sector.<\/p>\n

The event, held on Tuesday, 12 May 2026, ahead of the Authority\u2019s official anniversary on Saturday, 16 May, brought together current and retired staff of the GCAA, airline representatives, officials from the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority, immigration officers and other stakeholders within the aviation industry.<\/p>\n

In his welcome address, the Director-General of the GCAA, Rev Stephen Wilfred Arthur, described the conference as an opportunity not only to celebrate the Authority\u2019s achievements but also to shape the future of aviation in Ghana.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is not only a celebration of how far we have come, but more importantly, it is a unique opportunity to learn, to share, and to shape our future together,\u201d he said, adding: \u201cBecause this is a future that has a foundation and that foundation was built and laid by another set of important people in our midst. Please help me appreciate our retirees.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rev Arthur stressed that collaboration remained essential to the success of the aviation industry, noting that regulators, airlines, policymakers and service providers must continue working together to address challenges confronting the sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies and gentlemen, it is a no-brainer that aviation thrives on collaboration,\u201d he said, while commending the presence of airline operators and partner institutions at the conference.<\/p>\n

Rev Arthur also urged participants to ensure that discussions at the conference moved beyond theory and translated into measurable outcomes for the industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis discussion should not always remain in the form of theory but we should ensure that our discussions and engagements translate into actionable outcomes that benefit the entire industry,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

He further emphasised the importance of passenger welfare, saying a modern aviation sector must deliver not only growth and efficiency but also respect passenger rights and improve travel experiences.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we deliberate on policy, operations, safety, and innovation, we must also keep at the centre of our discussions the very people that we have been called to serve \u2014 our passengers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Director-General reaffirmed the Authority\u2019s commitment to global aviation standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization, adding that safety, fairness, accountability and collaboration remained central to the GCAA\u2019s mission.<\/p>\n

A major highlight of the conference was a presentation by former Director-General, Wing Commander (retired) Andy Mensah, who reflected on the early years of the Authority and the transformation of the airport enclave over time.<\/p>\n

He recalled that before the creation of the Ghana Airports Company Limited as a separate entity, the GCAA had a workforce of about 950 employees and operated within what he described as a heavily forested airport environment.<\/p>\n

According to him, wildlife including snakes and deer frequently crossed the runway due to the dense vegetation surrounding the airport enclave at the time.<\/p>\n

He also recounted the operational challenges of earlier decades, noting that the air traffic control tower leaked during rainfall and visibility from the tower was poor because of the green-tinted glass installed at the facility.<\/p>\n

Wing Commander Mensah said safety and security systems in those years were weak, creating opportunities for criminal activities such as the trafficking of illicit substances through the airport.<\/p>\n

He contrasted those conditions with the current state of the aviation sector, describing today\u2019s airport infrastructure and technological systems as significantly more advanced and sophisticated.<\/p>\n

Contrasting the current situation to the past, he observed that there has been vast improvement, which he said was a source of pride to him and his contemporaries.<\/p>\n

The conference also featured a panel discussion on key issues affecting Ghana\u2019s aviation industry, including safety, security, airfares, operational challenges and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n
