Kevin Taylor, a controversial social media commentator, has urged President John Dramani Mahama to dismiss the Managing Director of the Ghana Airports Company Limited, Mrs Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare.
According to Kevin Taylor, numerous controversies have emerged during her tenure, and she cannot be seen as not part of the crime.
He noted that several scandals unfolded at the airport under her leadership during the Akufo-Addo-led administration, including the COVID-19 testing, Akufo-Addo’s daughter selling shops at the Airport.
Kevin Taylor further raised questions about why John Mahama continues to retain her instead of appointing a more competent individual from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) who sacrificed for the president to regain power.
Speaking on his show With All Due Respect, Kevin Talyor fumed, “This woman at the Ghana Airport Company is causing too much controversy; it has been going much for too long. People are tired of this woman. It has been seven months, it is enough.
Whoever was giving this woman the favours, it is enough that this woman needs to go. This woman needs to be sacked. Mr President, with all due respect, the NDC as a political party and this government, Mr President John Dramani Mahama, it is enough”.
Kevin Taylor asserted that Mrs Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare is bad news and part of the crimes happening at the Ghana Airport.
He added, “This woman is bad news; she is part of the crime. She did nothing for the NDC to come to power; she is an NPP appointee, in and out she works for Akufo-Addo. We don’t want to have an issue with you, Mr President, with all due respect, sack this woman this week.
Enough of the controversy at the Airport, Abobea had to work, but this woman did everything possible for Abobea to be sacked from the Airport; this Airport does not belong to this woman. When Gyankroma and Akufo-Addo were sharing the airport shops and the COVID-19 scandal, this woman was there.
So, Mr President, you cannot tell me this woman has not been part of the crime from day one; this woman needs to go, or else we are going to demonstrate against your decision you keep this woman at the Airport”.
The US-based vlogger further stated boldly that he is not going to allow any malign the Mahama government by ensuring the right things are done.
He continued, “We are not going to allow anybody to malign this government; we are here to protect the government, we are here to speak truth and to ensure the right things are done”.
According to Kevin Taylor, President Mahama cannot tell Ghanaians that no one in Ghana has better qualifications and can do a better job than Mrs. Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare.
He detailed, “This woman is under investigation. She is not supposed to be the MD of the Ghana Airport. I don’t know what job she has done that no one could do. I don’t know the qualification she has that in Ghana, no NDC member has. I cannot see any extraordinary work she has done at the Kotoka International Airport, which we cannot get a woman or someone who is smarter and intelligent to fill that position.
There are people who have sacrificed to bring Mahama to power. Why is this woman still in post? Are we entertaining nonsense? Why are we entertaining these things? The controversy surrounding this woman is too much; she needs to go”.
Kevin Taylor later fired shots at Paul Adom-Otchere, the former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), describing him as a thief.
“Paul Adom Otchere is a thief. Nobody should take that guy seriously; he is a typical liar. Paul Adom Otchere does not live with his wife. Paul Adom Octhere is a carny, slimy, dirty riffraff who can lie through his ass”, he boldly added.
Kevin Taylor’s comment follows Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare, the managing director of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), ending the scandalous revenue assurance contract with Evatex Logistics.
The report suggests that Evatex Logistics Limited, a company affiliated with SML, has been served with a termination letter on 28th July, 2025.
According to the MD, no payments have also been made to date to Evatex Logistics.
Evatex Logistics Ltd, a firm affiliated with Strategic Mobilisation Ghana Ltd (SML), was contracted by GACL to provide revenue assurance services in regard to cargo at Kotoka International Airport.
“The terms of reference indicated that, upon successful completion of the assignment, GACL would pay Evatex Logistics Ltd out of the recouped amount—a fee equivalent to 15%, which shall be charged on the total of the possible royalties unearthed, concealment uncovered, and recouped by GACL under the audit assignment”.
Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare’s statement read, “Reference is made to the Revenue Assurance Audit agreement (The Agreement) executed between Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) and Evatex Logistics Limited on the 4th of December 2024.
Management would wish to bring to your notice (as at the date of this letter), its intention to terminate the Agreement without cause oursuant to the termination clause (a) of the agreement which states as followe: A party may terminate this Agreement before its expiry, without cause, by providing the other party a one month’s prior written notice of ts decision to terminate….”
The GACL MD added, “Hence, effective 27th of August 2025, the agreement executed on the 4th of December 2024 shall cease to have effect and shall be considered as terminated by GACL. You are therefore required to use this notice period to demobilise and leave the premises of Kotoka International Airport on or before the 27th of August 2025.
We thank you for your intention to carry out the revenue assurance audit and wish you well in your future endeavours”.
The Office of the Special Prosecutor is all over the GACL contract with Evatex Logistics, investigating the circumstances under which the contract was awarded to the firm.
However, Evatex has threatened to sue if the Ghana Airport Company does not restore the terminated audit contract worth $64.6 million.
Evatex has given the Ghana Airport a seven-day ultimatum to restore the terminated contract.
