The attention of the Ministry of Communications and Digitalisation (MoCD ) has been drawn to a social media report carried on the online portal “www.Ghanaweb.com” published on Tuesday, February 15, 2022, under the headline “Speaker-directs-govt-to-present-Airtel-Tigo-aquisition-deal-before-Parliament-for-approval”. The story suggests that the MoCD has been given a directive by the Speaker of Parliament to present the Airtel Tigo acquisition document to Parliament for approval. For the Records, the Speaker did not give any such directive. He merely made general comments to the Ministry of Finance. And we cannot depend on documents from those agencies as authentic documents to work with.
