The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) in the Republic of Ghana has expressed its readiness to collaborate with the country’s downstream petroleum regulator, the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), to enforce its regulations to deal with miscreants in the downstream sector.
Speaking during a visit to the Authority last week, the Executive Director of EOCO, COP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah, said her visit was aimed at establishing a collaborative relationship between the two-state institutions.
“COP Maame Tiwaa Addo-Danquah expressed the availability and eagerness of EOCO to support the NPA in enforcing their laws and assisting their task force whose aim is to recover debts owed it.
