One of the very first words you will hear or come across on as you enter the country amidst the warm reception is the word ‘Akwaaba’.
It is a word from the Twi language, the most widely spoken local dialect in the country.
At the Kotoka International Airport - the largest international Airport in the country - one is ushered by the boldly written words.
Akwaaba literally means welcome back - denoting a return from a journey. Anytime you are in Ghana, make sure you respond to an Akwaaba welcome with ‘Medaase’ meaning thank you
