I’ve not signed a deal with Genser - Energy minister to Ghana Gas Senior Staff
The Ministry of Energy has dismissed claims that the sector minister, Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh, has signed a contract with Genser for the building of a second Gas Processing Plant with a higher capacity.
Ghana Gas Senior Staff Association in a statement dated January 9, 2023, called on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to intervene in the minister’s alleged approval of the Genser deal.
The senior staff expressed their displeasure about the manner in which the Minister was supposedly handling the gas industry.
“Workers of Ghana Gas were shocked to hear that Genser is planning to build a Gas Processing Plant with its raw gas source being Jubilee fields," the association said.
They are therefore calling on the presidency to intervene since the President’s dream of having a second Gas Processing Plant is on the line, the Association said in its statement.
In a separate statement on January 10, 2023, the Energy Ministry, stated, “The Minister wishes to state emphatically that neither he nor anyone else acting on behalf of the Ministry has signed any contract with Genser."
Below is the full statement, signed by the Communications and Public Affairs Unit of the ministry:
