A Ghanaian living in the United Kingdom who travelled through the Kotoka International Airport recently says that she is appalled after she was robbed off all belongings after going through the Kotoka International Airport.
Ms. Irene Obiri Yeboah had to go through the Kotoka International Airport on the night of 11th July this year on her way to London. She was on Flight BA 78, with British Airways.
Speaking to the Daily Searchlight from her base in London, Ms. Obiri Yeboah said that she left Accra at close to midnight because the flight to UK had delayed.
“When I arrived at UK to clear my bag I realized instantly that the bags had been tempered with because they were very light in weight. I waited until I got home before opening, only to discover that virtually all the things in my bag had been stolen,” she said.
These included several pieces of brand new African clothes that she had bought to use whilst in the UK. Over several weeks the Daily Searchlight had been receiving reports of similar petty thefts. One old woman was robbed of her tablet and other valuables after going through the KIA.
