The silver jubilee-kofar nassarawa-Ibrahim Taiwo roads flyover in Kano was reported to be the longest in west Africa until this news report. It is 1.76km long. The second one still under construction on murtala Mohammed road also in kano is 1.9km long.

The length of the one in Accra is not given but definitely wider (6 lanes) than that of Kano. The President called it the highest, but is it higher than Ijora-Apapa flyover?

The clearer picture of Accra bridge below
Ghana government will not tell the length of Accra flyover because they know that is not the biggest in west Africa. Even Darkar flyover ( Senegal) is longer than Accra flyover. Ghana president John Rahamani Mahama is a well know bragger. Even when him build a tiny classroom, he will tell Ghanaians that the classroom is biggest in West Africa. I stop taking Ghana president serious when he told Ghanaians that Northern Region capital "Tamale" is the fastest growing city in West Africa. Tamale that you can't even see ordinary 2 storey building. Tamale that don't have any industry or big market. Yet Ghana president told Ghanaians that tamale is the fastest growing city in West Africa. Google " Tamale" and see a village Ghana president said is the fastest growing city in West Africa.

Wa Airport ready for operations

President John Dramani Mahama is set to inaugurate the Wa Airport in the Upper West Region for the start of commercial operation by end of this month, B&FT sources have revealed.

The airport has undergone extensive renovation including the construction of a suitable terminal building, construction of a new runway, and fencing of the facility to make it suitable and safe for commercial operations.

The Wa airstrip, which was decades ago used for domestic services, had remained unsuitable for domestic flights over a long period now.

Domestic airline operators cited the poor runway, lack of an adequate terminal building and other ancillary facilities for their inability to operate flights from Accra to the Upper West regional capital.

A significant number of the travelling passengers to Tamale do so for onward connections by road to the Upper East and Upper West Regions and Burkina Faso.

The regional capital, Wa, is home to some 224,000 people -- most of whom work with non-governmental organisations operating in the region, and are students of the Wa campus of the University of Development Studies (UDS).

There is a lot of inter-trading activities between the country and its northern neighbour, Burkina Faso. The land-locked country relies on Ghana and other West African countries for its maritime imports, which are carted by land through the Upper West and Upper East Regions to the Burkinabe capital, Ouagadougou.

Growing passenger throughput, increasing number of French-speaking West Africans in Ghana, and the relatively peaceful nature of the country are some of the major lures for airlines in the region.

The domestic transit passenger volumes increased from 14,000 in July 2015 to over 22, 000 in July this year. International passenger throughput also hit 1.6million this year.

With the Ho airport also expected to be operational this year, there is now a growing concern in some quarters about the ability of the only two remaining domestic operators to service all destinations locally.

Starbow currently operate flight between Accra and Tamale, Sunyani, Kumasi and Takoradi; while Africa World Airlines (AWA) operates flights from the domestic terminal of KIA, Accra to Tamale and Kumasi. AWA also started servicing the Accra-Takoradi route today.

This is something we don't see in Nigeria. We don't value beauty in this parts. Never knew a flyover could be this beautiful in black Africa.

It's also a shame that Ghana has just taken thie title of the longest flyover from us. I guess we have to go back to the "Giant of Africa" rhetoric.m

No, Ghana didn't. Actually Egypt did. They've had the longest bridge and flyover for years now.

Do i even know the difference? Do you care to elucidate?
flyover is the one built over land, linking up different areas, while bridge is built over sea,river etc, linking up areas separated by water, (my own layman understanding tho)

There are many deadly roads in this country, roads that suppose to be flyover.
For example some of the federal roads in nasarawa state are deadly roads they suppose to be flyover.

But this is a country where everything is upside down. Bad leadership.
