GHANA’S national flag-carrier Ghana Airways, facing mounting debts and an inability to break even, is on the brink of collapse, the company’s acting chief executive has said. Ghana Airways, which employs 1 400 people, is saddled with $150-million worth of debt, Kofi Kwakwa told the state-owned Daily Graphic in an interview published on Monday. He said the airline was unlikely to survive without government intervention. “The choices are either to salvage the company or let it die naturally,” Kwakwa said. He added that even though the company had managed to reduce losses, Air Ghana had lost some two-fifths of its ridership since the September 11 terror attacks in the United States. – AFP
