The Ghana Police Service has launched an investigation into the disappearance of Mr. Tony Mintah, the Chief Executive Officer of NextGen Infraco, who was allegedly abducted by unidentified individuals from the premises of the National Communication Authority (NCA) in Accra.
Authorities are urging the public to remain calm and provide any relevant information that could help locate Mr. Mintah by contacting the designated hotline, 0547927272. The police assured the public that they are actively pursuing the case and will provide updates as new details emerge.
NextGen Infraco, the company awarded the licensing contract to lead Ghana’s transition to the 5G spectrum, plays a key role in the country’s digital infrastructure upgrade. In June 2024, the Government of Ghana, in partnership with Ascend Digital, K-NET, Radisys, Nokia, and Tech Mahindra, and supported by mobile network operators including AirtelTigo-AT and Telecel, launched the Next-Gen InfraCo (NGIC). This initiative aims to provide affordable 5G mobile broadband services and drive the country’s digital transformation.
At the launch, the Minister for Communications and Digitalisation, Mrs. Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, highlighted the significance of the Next-Gen InfraCo, describing it as a groundbreaking partnership that would accelerate Ghana’s digital agenda.
