Ghana National Gas Company has dismissed media reports suggesting that some of its board members had been engaging in deals which had become a source of worry to some staff.
The Herald Newspaper in the Republic of Ghana claimed in a report on Monday, September 18, 2023, that there were reports about procurement deals among other challenges with claims that a future government would have to thoroughly investigate.
However, reacting to the report, Ghana Gas, in a statement issued by the Head of Corporate Communications, Ernest Kofi Owusu-Bempah Bonsu described the report as completely false, malicious and unfounded.
“Indeed, there is no scintilla of evidence to back the Herald story,” he said.
He stated that the reportage passed for irresponsible media aggression and certainly not journalism.
“There has never been any rot associated with our operations here at Ghana Gas, and we find it very unusual for a journalistic outlet to throw away the cardinal journalistic standard of fairness and the responsibility, to tell the truth as it engages in news reporting.
“We demand a retraction of the story and a formal apology to repair the damage caused to our organisation.
“Ghana Gas remains committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in all our operations,” he concluded.
