At least two shareholders of the privately owned, Ogle International Airport, several of the operators are not supportive of a move by the Airport’s board to rename the airport in honour of Guyana’s first Minister of Communications and Aviation, Eugene Correia.
Both shareholders are operators at the airport and a number of other operators are also against the name change.
President Granger had made a recommendation for the name change when he commissioned a new aircraft for the Trans Guyana Airline company.
Trans Guyana is owned and operated by the Correia group, which is one of the main shareholders in the Ogle Airport company.
The airport’s board quickly began moves to effect the name change even in the wake of protest from Shareholder and Director, Captain Gerry Gouveia of Roraima Airways and other large operators at the airport.
Captain Gouveia has been pushing recently for the airport to be renamed after Guyana’s first executive President, Forbes Burnham, if there is to be any name change.
