Mr. Ntim (4th R) and Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh (6th L) with the NPA Board<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

President Nana Akufo-Addo, has appointed Mr. Stephen Ayesu Ntim as the Board Chairman of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA).<\/p>\n

Mr. Ntim takes over from Mr. Joe Addo-Yobo, who has served as NPA Board Chairman since<\/p>\n

2017.<\/p>\n

In line with the constitutional requirement, the Minister of Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, swore Mr. Ntim into office on 21st<\/sup> May 2024.<\/p>\n

Dr. Opoku Prempeh charged the new chairman to focus on key priorities; strengthening regulatory frameworks, enhancing operational efficiencies, and ensuring that the NPA operates with the highest standards of integrity and accountability.<\/p>\n

The Sector Minister expressed the hope that the new Chairman would bring Mr. Ntim\u2019s rich experience in leadership to bear on the operations of the NPA, the regulator of the country\u2019s petroleum downstream industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Ntim is not new to leadership and therefore, I have no doubt that, he has what it takes to steer the NPA to achieve its objectives for the benefit of all Ghanaians,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr. Ntim has a wealth of experience gained from several executive and corporate positions.<\/p>\n

He started his profession as a Systems Engineer at Electronic Data Systems (EDS Inc.) in Michigan, USA, where he worked from 1993 to 1995.<\/p>\n

Prior to that, he trained as a Programmer\/Analyst at St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company in St. Paul, Minnesota, USA.<\/p>\n

Mr. Ntim is a product of the University of Ghana and the University of Minnesota, USA, from where he holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in French and Linguistics and an MBA in Management Information Systems, respectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Board and Management welcome Mr. Ntim to the National Petroleum Authority,\u201d said a statement released by the communications directorate of the NPA.<\/p>\n
