Photos of the Accra Airport City and its environs that were taken in the 90s and in recent years have been shared online to suggest that there has been massive development.
The pictures that were made public on the Twitter handle of @Ghanasportlight show that the place previously looked deserted although the roads had been tarred at the time.
In the recent pictures, beautiful highrise buildings could be seen all around the location.
A night view of the same spot was taken to show another version of the breathtaking beauty.
See the pictures below:

Let's continue to show appreciation for the progress we are making as a nation. Yes, Ghana can do more. Let's encourage each other to promote peace and good governance. We've come a long way. We all have a role to play in building a beautiful and prosperous Ghana
@rockyamartey indicated:
ill applaud the initiative to have a city around the airport. this came up in the construction boom of 07, but I think there are some structural defects in terms of the road and landscaping, hoping they will implement a structured mixed-use approach for Airport city 2
@jxcl_miNaj interestingly mentioned:
I see why there’s always traffic there. Looks like Ghana only plans where to put buildings and ignore improving roads.

Meanwhile, a gentleman from Ghana living in the United States has made a video to counter Twene Jonas who became famous for creating videos to suggest that the United States is just another version of heaven on earth.
In the footage that is currently going viral, the young man whose name is not disclosed recorded the surroundings of a province in New York city called Bronx.
In the video, rubbish could be seen scattered on the floor with the streets looking really dirty, suggesting that they had not been cleaned or attended to in a long time.
