The National Petroleum Authority (NPA) has stepped up its nationwide campaign to clamp down on all forms of illicit fuel trade as part of efforts to sanitise the downstream petroleum industry.
The initiative is in line with the vision of the NPA’s Chief Executive, Mr. Godwin Kudzo Tameklo, to ensure transparency, accountability, and efficiency within the sector.
So far, the Authority’s team has extended the campaign to the Ashanti, Eastern, Central, and Western Regions, where they held stakeholder and media engagements to educate the public on the dangers of illicit fuel activities.
Officials also reminded participants of the NPA’s regulatory mandate and stressed that offenders risk facing severe punitive sanctions under existing laws.
The Authority says it will continue to roll out similar engagements across the country to safeguard the integrity of Ghana’s petroleum downstream industry.
