The Ghana Stock Exchange, GSE, will soon make a formal request to Vodafone Ghana to list on the local bourse.
The Ghana Stock Exchange said the same rules that applied to MTN to list on the GSE when they acquire 4G license should also be applied to Vodafone.
Addressing journalist in Accra, the Managing Director of the Ghana Stock Exchange, Kofi Yamoah said any telecom provider acquiring the 4G license should be made to list on the local bourse.
Mr Yamoah said, "I don't believe that Ghana still has significant ownership in Vodafone and the indicators are clear, Ghanaians have to own the shares properly."
Kofi Yamoah indicated that he had a meeting with the Minister of Communications and one of the deputies and begun a discussion on the matter.
"I met the Minister and Deputy on a different matter but this came up and we had an understanding that moving forward they will be pressed upon to come on the market, they have been in the country for more than ten years," he noted.
