Africa Confidential has published a potentially explosive report on corporate comings and goings at Ghana’s Tema port. It looks at Bolloré Africa Logistics, which is involved in a chain of 18 West African container terminals, and along with partner APM Terminals won a deal to operate the new terminal. But a secret Ghanaian ministerial report on the deal notes a “lack of transparency and ethical discipline”, and it concludes that the terms are “so tilted against Ghana’s interests” that the deal should be re-negotiated immediately. Africa Confidential’s report is well-researched, and a must-read for anyone interested in the African port sector.
