The Sunyani Airport which used to serve domestic flights has been out of use partly due to structural defects that have affected both the tarmac and the runway.

She expressed worry over the encroachment on Airport lands.

She said this the encroachment would make it difficult for any immediate extension to be done.

Madam Dapaah used the occasion to meet with two chiefs, Nana Kwame Korang and Nana Kwesi Yeboah of the Odumase Traditional Council that leased the land for the Airport, to discuss the issue of encroachment on the airport lands.
