Ghana’s former President, John Agyekum Kufuor, has urged the Chief Executive of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Mr. Godwin Kudzo Tameklo Esq., to administer the Authority with integrity and professionalism for the benefit of the downstream petroleum industry.
He noted that such an approach would protect both the CEO and the Authority from any form of embarrassment and ensure effective regulation of the sector.
Former President Kufuor gave the advice when Mr. Tameklo, accompanied by some senior staff of the Authority, paid a courtesy call on him at his Peduase residence to formally inform him about the upcoming NPA @20 anniversary celebrations and extend an invitation to him.
The National Petroleum Authority (NPA) was established under the NPA Act of 2005 (Act 691) during the Kufuor administration to regulate, oversee, and monitor Ghana’s downstream petroleum industry.
Headquartered in Accra, the NPA ensures that the industry operates efficiently, profitably, and fairly, providing consumers with value for money.
Former President Kufuor expressed appreciation for the visit and recognition, and accepted the invitation to participate in the celebrations.
NPA CEO Tameklo commended the former President for conceiving the idea of establishing the Authority.
He also invited him to take part in the anniversary activities.
The NPA delegation included Mr. Joseph Awan – Director of Risk and Chairman of the 20th Anniversary Planning Committee; Mrs. Maria Oquaye – Director of Corporate Affairs and Co-Chair of the Planning Committee; Mrs. Racheal Naa Atswei Nee-Okpey – Head of Communications; Mrs. Genevieve Bissue – Head of Protocol and Logistics; Mr. Emmanuel Mensah Hanson – Executive Assistant to the CEO; and Mr. Maxwell Boakye – Special Aide to the CEO.
