The Head of Corporate Communication and External Affairs at Ghana’s Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) Company Limited, Marlick Adjei has refuted media report suggesting that the company’s depot at Buipe in the Central Gonja District of the Savannah Region of the West African nation is under fire.
Some online portal claimed that the West African nation’s strategic oil storage company’s depot at Buipe was in flames.
However, Head of Communication for the company Marlick Adjei who confirmed the outbreak of fire near the company’s depot, explained that it is rather five fuel tankers belonging to some Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) which were parked near the depot which caught fire and got burnt into ashes.
It is not clear what triggered the fire.
Marlick Adjei told energynewsafrica.com that fire service personnel who were called to the scene managed to bring the fire under control some few hours ago.
