Video: SOFTtribe contract cancellation: ‘I am here to protect Ghana’s interest’– Ghana Water MD

Managing Director of the Ghana Water Company Ltd has stressed, the cancellation of an e-billing contract with tech firm theSOFTtribe is solely motivated by the national interest.

‘I am here to serve the interest of Ghana’, Dr. Clifford A. Braimah told theghanareport.com in an exclusive interview Thursday.

He said Ghana Water Company was losing out on its investments after SOFTtribe failed to hold its part of a contract to provide digitized billing systems for customers.

TheSOFTtribe has accused GWCL of trying to clone its software to which it claims to have intellectual property rights.

But Dr. Clifford A. Braimah has debunked this claim, explaining that per the terms of its contract with theSOFTtribe, Ghana Water Company must have a copy of the software.

It is a condition which he says theSOFTtribe has failed to meet since the contract began in 2016.

This failure is part of several reasons compelling the Management of the Ghana Water Company to notify the tech firm of contract termination.
