A former Deputy Minister for Energy and the incumbent Member of Parliament for Adansi-Asokwa in the Ashanti Region, Kobina Tahir Hammond shocked Ghanaians on Tuesday when he revealed that he does not know the cost of fuel because he doesn’t have a car.
“I don’t buy fuel. I don’t have a car, so I don’t buy fuel,” the former Deputy Energy Minister said during the proceedings of an ad-hoc committee hearing the motion of censure against Ken Ofori-Atta, Ghana’s Minister for Finance.
Many Ghanaians have been wondering whether the MP rides a bicycle to Parliament for his parliamentary duties or has other means of transportation to the House.
Fuel prices have been soaring on the local market due to the depreciation of the Ghanaian cedi.
However, on Wednesday, 16th November 2022, oil marketing companies adjusted their pump prices due to a decline in crude oil prices on the world market, as well as gains made by the Ghanaian currency over the past few days.
