The Minister of Communications, Dr Omane Boamah says government shall soon present a draft bill to Parliament to ban the exportation of copper from the country.He said the legislation, when it becomes a law, would reduce the theft of communication cables and help improve the services of communication companies in the country.Dr Boamah said this during a working visit to the office of Vodafone Ghana Limited and Vodafone Network Operations Centre on the Spintex Road. He said the visit was in response to the emerging challenges faced by telecom companies and the mounting concerns raised by the citizenry when making mobile phone calls.Dr Boamah said the issue of cable theft was of great concern to Government and that National Security was carefully monitoring the situation.
