Spy Ghana: GNGC take over is becoming much more dangerous

The Ministry of Petroleum’s decision to institute the takeover of the Ghana National Gas Company (GNGC) by state owned oil company- the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC), was largely due to a long string of “disappointing” inactions of the Dr. Kwesi Botchwey-led board of GNGC, the Republic newspaper has gathered'

This paper gathered from reliable sources within the Energy Ministry and the Ministry of Finance that unproductiveness of the GNGC board was responsible for preventing the country’s first gas infrastructure from coming on stream within the timelines promised by the John Dramani Mahama-led administration.

Indeed, the timeline for the coming on stream of the Atuabo gas project has overshot its timeline by several months, much to the frustration of the Mahama-led administration whose image has been battered by the crippling energy crisis.
