Cancelling Fuel Coupon is Not Only Illegal, It’s Unethical And Must Be Condemned By All- Assafuah

A Ghanaian political figure, Assafuah, has criticised the cancellation of fuel coupons, describing the decision as both illegal and unethical and insisting that it deserves condemnation.

In his remarks, Assafuah argued that withdrawing fuel coupons raises concerns about the legality of the decision and the principles guiding its implementation. He maintained that the action should not be viewed merely as an administrative adjustment, but as an issue requiring serious consideration of the rules and responsibilities governing the affected parties.

His criticism has brought renewed attention to the use of fuel coupons in public institutions and the procedures that should be followed when existing arrangements are changed or withdrawn.

Fuel coupons are commonly used by organisations to cover fuel expenses for eligible personnel, particularly those whose official duties require regular travel. Depending on the terms under which they are issued, such benefits may form part of an employment arrangement, an official entitlement or an administrative policy.

The legality of cancelling such benefits would therefore depend on the circumstances surrounding their issuance, the applicable regulations and whether the authority responsible followed the required procedures. Without those details, the claim that the cancellation is illegal cannot be independently established.

Assafuah’s comments also raise questions about accountability and fairness in the management of institutional benefits. Changes to existing arrangements can generate disagreements when affected individuals believe that their entitlements have been withdrawn without adequate explanation or consultation.

However, the reasons behind the fuel coupon cancellation, the individuals or institutions affected and the specific legal provisions involved have not been established from the information provided.

Further clarification from the relevant authorities would help determine the basis for the decision and whether the proper procedures were followed.

For now, Assafuah’s position is that the cancellation is unacceptable on both legal and ethical grounds. His criticism adds to the debate over how fuel-related benefits should be administered and the standards that should guide decisions affecting those who receive them.
