The Coordinating Committee and members of the Nkrumaist Forum say they are at pains to understand government’s desire to pawn off Ghana Telecom.In a statement, the group said it was registering members “unqualified outrage and protest at the blatant dissipation of Ghana's resources and cavalier attitude that the NPP has shown in regard to the sale of Ghana Telecom (GT) to Vodafone.”Members of the Forum said they disagree with the sale and the non-transparent nature of the procedure.“For a company that has the capacity to generate over one billion US dollars annually with a potential of over five billion in the next five years, the offering price and projected investment over the next five years is completely insignificant and an insult to the people of Ghana.“The NPP must be told in no uncertain terms that this attempt to sell such a valuable national asset without due consultation and due process amounts to nothing but an attempt to hoodwink the good people of Ghana.”Credit: Prince Osei Bonsu
