The Ghana LPG Operators Association in the Ashanti Region says it will resist the use of its members\u2019 retail outlets by the National Petroleum Authority for the Cylinder Recirculation Policy.<\/p>\n
The Association\u2019s members say the manner in which the policy is being implemented will collapse the LPG business.<\/p>\n
The NPA recently embarked on a pilot exercise in the Obuasi Municipality and said about 4,500 jobs will be created when the policy is fully implemented.<\/p>\n
But addressing journalists in Kumasi, members of the Association asked Cabinet to redefine the policy and support operators so they can stay in business.<\/p>\n
The Association\u2019s executives in a Citi News<\/strong> interview threatened to shut down their outlets in protest against the policy.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are telling the government and the CEO of NPA, Hassan Tampuli that they should not to go to any of our member stations. If they say they don\u2019t know us as dealers, then we will not allow them to use or stations for their selfish interest,\u201d one of the executives said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Another executive said \u201cif NPA wants to engage us, they should wait for the outcome of the court proceedings. If the government will not listen to us, we will advise ourselves accordingly and they know what that means.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
