  stake in VANEFSTC is wrong.SSNIT had 92.5%,VANEF 7%and DAVID DORTE 0.5% in VANEFSTC.There was never a the need for the 80%stake to be paid for.Vanef was the lead Manager of the business which was doing excellent:timely payment of debt to SG-SSB and guarantee fees to SSNIT,without any financial injection from government until there was change in government and the NPP govt through SSNIT changed the board of VANEFSTC and removed Vanef's involvement in the business.Since then the company has been on a downward spiral up to date,even though hundreds of new buses and funds have been introduced in the business.
