Abstract

The article offers information on how the British government manipulated Ghana former president John Agyekum Kufuor to trample over Ghana's divestiture laws and hand over 70 percent of Ghana Telecommunications Co. to Vodafone AG. It mentions that the bid of Vodafone had been rejected and eliminated in the first round of the public bidding process but bizarrely won in the end. It notes that secret negotiations were conducted by Kufuor and Vodafone/British government officials in November 2007.
