President Akufo-Addo has reappointed Mr. Edwin Alfred Provencal as the Managing Director of Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Limited (BOST).
Edwin Provencal was the third Managing Director during the first term of the Akufo-Addo-led administration.
He was appointed after the dismissal of his predecessor, the late George Mensah Okley.
Since assumption of office, the MD and his management team have worked tirelessly in a bid to turn around the fortunes of the company.
Under his leadership, the company has been able to fully repair four river barges that were grounded and the Buipe-Bolgatanga pipeline with the repair works on Tema-Akosombo pipeline expected to be completed and operationalised by the end of the third quarter.
Swearing in the newly constituted Board of Directors of BOST, Energy Minister Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh charged the board to work together as a team.
Sounding a caution to them, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh said he would not entertain any form of undermining by the MD against a board member or a board member against the MD.
Dr. Opoku Prempeh, who said he is solidly behind the board, reminded them of what he described as bad nuts in the downstream petroleum sector who are always setting traps for others to fall into.
He charged them to be efficient and transparent in their operations.
Mr. Ekow Hackman, who was the Board Chairman of BOST during the first term of President Akufo-Addo, was reappointed as chairman for the new board.
Other members of the board are Bright Okyere Adjekum Esq., Prof Kofi Osei Akuoku and Francisca Aba Addison
The rest are Dr. Nana Ayew Afriyie, Mr.s Joyce Agyeman Attafuah, Nana Owusu Afriyie IV and Emmanuel Tando.
