United Arabs Emirate has warned that as from 8 March 2017, there would be no more bring in of the widely known Ghana Must Go bag which is mostly used by Nigerians and Ghanaians into their airport. This was contained in a statement by an airport official who stated that the only

Ali Angizeh, the vice president of terminal operations at Dubai International explains the reason for the introduction.
Bags that are round or do not have a flat surface of any kind are by far the largest cause of baggage jams.
These jams can shut down sections of our system, delay the delivery of baggage to the aircraft and inconvenience customers.
Passengers who show up at the airport with non-compliant baggage, will be given the option to have it repacked in boxes, for a fee," the airport VP stated.
