Minister for Communications to come and respond to this house whether it is true that Vodafone, a $1 billion asset of the Republic of Ghana, has been sold on credit for less than a $100 million and what the state of that transaction is, as an economic transaction within the meaning of Article 185 of the 1992 Constitution. And probably to also update this house on the whittling away of Ghana’s telecom landscape and its strength. Minister for Agric you know I don’t speculate, I’m above speculation,” the Member of Parliament for Tamale South said.
