Here's a news article from Ghana regarding the whole thing, including photos of the official letter to Delta from their aviation authority, etc: https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Delta-Airline-number-N195DN-banned-from-flying-to-Ghana-1608143 https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Delta-Air...
