The Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) has successfully reclaimed more than 16 acres of prime airport land following a ruling by the Accra High Court in its favour against subsidiaries of the McDan Group.

The court’s judgment, delivered on May 6, 2025, granted GACL full possession of two parcels of land—approximately 10.63 acres and 5.66 acres—situated near Kotoka International Airport, adjacent to and opposite Action Chapel International.

The lands belonging to Ghana Airports Company had been leased since 2012 to McDan Shipping Company and Airport Logistics Limited, both part of the McDan Group.

In February 2025, GACL filed a suit citing multiple breaches of the lease agreements and unpaid ground rent.

The company sought the recovery of $26,296 in arrears and a perpetual injunction to bar the companies from further interference with the land.

The High Court granted a summary judgment, ruling that the defendants had no valid defence. All GACL’s reliefs were upheld, and the court ordered GH¢50,000 in legal costs to be paid.

In a statement, GACL described the ruling as a significant recovery of state property and commended the efforts of its Legal Department and Managing Director, Mrs. Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare.

“The repossession of these lands not only safeguards millions of dollars in state assets but also reinforces our commitment to accountability and the lawful management of public property,” the company said.

This land recovery follows a related incident in December 2024, when McDan Aviation’s operations at Terminal 1 of Kotoka International Airport were suspended due to outstanding debts.

While those obligations were later settled, the land dispute remained unresolved until the recent court decision.
