Ghana’s President, Akufo-Addo, has reconstituted the Board of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR), increasing the number of the Board Members from seven to eleven, including a new Managing Director.
The President retained Mrs Edith Sapa Grant, Nana Akua Bokoma Prempeh and Mr Leon Kendon Appenteng.
The newcomers are Dr Antoinette Tsiboe-Darko, Mrs Loraine Crabbe Ababio, Mr Alfred George Thompson, Mr Paul Kweku Kyei Ofori, Mr Kwame Baffoe and Mr Herbert Ato Morison, former Deputy Managing Director of TOR.
The reconstituted board will be chaired by Mr Leon Kendon Appenteng.
There has not been industrial harmony at the refinery in recent times due to a 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.
