There were proposals for the airport to be renamed after the late anti-apartheid activist Winnie Madikizela-Mandela and Mafu had said in March 2019 that Madikizela-Mandela's name was number one on the list of names being considered.

Mafu confirmed this offer during a parliamentary committee meeting and said that if the vaccine is approved, there is no reason why 'Sascoc and everybody else should not use it'.
