The Acting Chief Executive Officer of Ghana National Gas Company, Judith Adjobah Blay, has urged management to support her plans to reduce waste and increase efficiency.
Speaking at her first face-to-face meeting with management at the Operational Headquarters of Ghana Gas at Alabokazo in the Western Region, Madam Blay emphasized the need to cut costs without compromising essential operations like maintenance.
“I will not cut cost when it’s for maintenance or where my managers advise I don’t go there, but there are some places that I know that we waste a lot and I think that together, we can commit to that crusade of cutting down on some of these wastage so that we make Ghana Gas sustainable.
“We are hoping that there would be more production so that our gas inflows would considerably increase but we should know that the resource is finite and that is where the cost cutting comes in.
“This is because we have to think about how to sustain our business so that we can enjoy. We have to tighten up small or suffer small so that in the future, we can pay ourselves the salaries or even better,“ said Madam Blay, according to citinewsroom.com.
The first female CEO of the Ghana National Gas Company, while expressing her belief in the competences of the managers and her readiness to work with them, further urged her management members not to let their loyalty be to her but Ghana Gas and Ghana for the sake of the company.
“I’m happy to be here to lead you, but you need to let your loyalty be to Ghana Gas and not to me, because my position is transient. I will be gone tomorrow, so if you let your loyalty be for me, what happens after I’m gone? So let your loyalty be to the company that pays you and not me. When you are at the plant working, work as your life depends on Ghana Gas and not me“, she emphasized.
