The airports in the interior – completely swallowed up under the Lansana Conté regime – might rise from their ashes in the coming months. So decided the authorities of the transition.
Prime Minister Dr. Bernard Goumou arrives, except last minute change, this Saturday, March 25 in Kankan, the 2nd city of the country and the largest town in Upper Guinea. He will lay the first stone of the air terminal of the main town of Savane.
According to our information, the head of the Guinean government will join the Nabaya by helicopter.
After Kankan, Goumou will land the plane in Faranah, birthplace of President Ahmed Sékou Touré, father of national independence. There too, he will start work on the terminal before returning to Conakry.
In early February, the government announced in the Council of Ministers that the terminals of Kankan, Boké, Labé, Faranah and N’zérékoré will be (re)commissioned.
Recently the authorities in power put into circulation a plane flocked with the Guinean flag which transported Guinean migrants in distress in Tunisia.
