We want to have a sustained investment programme so that in a market like Ghana, every Ghanaian has the capacity to enjoy the benefits of a modern connected life. And we are not changing view.

So if we are true to that vision, then we must sustain the CAPEX [Capital Expenditure]; and therefore we are not going to review that commitment when it comes to investment in Ghana.

We are looking to offload about 30% and we’ve made a lot of progress on that. 30% is the target and that is the commitment as group.

We want more and more Ghanaians to enjoy and participate in the economic success of Ghanaians and the business.
