Accra, March 15, GNA- The Management of Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) says all promotions at the Company have been conducted in strict adherence to established protocols.
The company said this included departmental recommendations and thorough evaluation by panels comprising no fewer than six members.
A statement issued in Accra by GACL said this also included representatives from the Public Services Commission and appropriate professional associations.
It said management had taken note of recent publications containing several allegations regarding appointments and promotions within the organization.
The statement said these claims and allegations were false.
It said interviews were conducted from May to July of 2024, and appointment letters were issued in August and September of 2024.
It said Ms. Felicia Edem Attipoe had not resumed post at GACL since January 2025, contrary to claims in the publication.
The statement said Mr. Gideon Grumah’s promotion to the position of Director, Commercial Services, was approved by the GACL Board in 2023, prior to the appointment of the current Managing Director, Mrs. Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare.
“The allegation that individuals were elevated to top management positions after only three months of engagement is categorically false,” it added.
It said staff members, who received promotions, had served the company for extended periods, with many having remained at officer level for 15-20 years despite their contributions.
The statement said Mr. Eric Nartey Yeboah’s appointment followed due process with an interview and was approved by the GACL Board.
It said it was imperative to state that GACL remained committed to merit-based advancement for all staff.
In 2024, 109 Aviation Security Personnel were promoted as part of our Staff Advancement policy, many of whom have dedicated years of service to the company.
GACL assured the public and stakeholders of their unwavering commitment to transparency, accountability, and operational excellence in fulfilling its mandate.
