Halt sale of Ghana Telecom, "
NDC says
Kweku Asare, Accra
Accra, October 12, Ghanadot – The main opposition National
Democratic Congress (NDC) party has raised serious objection
to government’s decision to go ahead with the divestiture of
Ghana Telecom and Western Telesystems (WESTEL).
It is therefore demanding that government halts the
divestiture process until a careful due diligence and
evaluation of the two companies is done on their worth and
value, arguing that” “the terms advertised so far will not
be in the economic interest of the country,” Mr Harruna
Idrissu, Member of Parliament for Tamale South told
journalists in Accra.
Government has advertised its intentions in the dailies and
international magazines to transfer over 66 per cent of the
shares of Ghana Telecom to a strategic investor. It has
therefore appointed a strategic investor to facilitate the
divestiture process.
Mr Haruna Iddrisu said Ghana will benefit only about 500
million dollars from the sale of the two telecommunications
entities and that the figure was “abysmally low.”
He said the NDC believes that the government could raise as
much as 2 billion dollars and called on the authorities to
move at putting the company on the Ghana Stock Exchange
where ordinary Ghanaians would have the honour of owning
part of their cherished company.
