Ghana’s President Nana Akufo-Addo has nominated Mr Kofi Mocumbi Tagoe, an investment banker with over 20 years of experience, as the new Managing Director of Tema Oil Refinery, state owned premier refinery.
He will take over from Mr Daniel Osei Appiah, who has been acting since last year when Mr Jerry Kofi Hinson was relief from his position as Managing Director over the controversial TOR -Torentco deal.
There has not been industrial harmony at the refinery in recent times due to lack of transparency and openness in the attempt by the Board to secure a partner to revamp the ailing refinery.
The premier refinery has not been able to process any crude for some years.
Currently, it only does storage of petroleum products for BDCs for a fee.
