COPEC petitions Special Prosecutor over BOST after Baako’s advice 


 
The Chamber Of Petroleum Consumers-Ghana (COPEC),  has become the first entity to petition the Office of the Special Prosecutor  to investigate a corruption related case.

The convener of the group, Duncan Amoah,  told the press at Tema Monday that, his outfit had petitioned the new anti-graft  state agency  to investigate  the alleged 1.8 million  barrel scandal at  the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation  (BOST). He alleged that the state lost  GHS23million in revenue following the sale of  1.8million litres of crude oil at a discount.

“One is left wondering what could have informed the current BOST to undertake such a poor wasteful transaction leaving the company with a net loss of over GHS 23million,” Duncan Amoah, convener of COPEC alleged. 

According to him, the investigation will prevent the issue from being swept under the carpet like previous scandals.

Editor  of the New Crusading Guide, Kwaku Baako, advised the  group  to present their findings to the OSP  in order to save the general public  from  polluted debate. 

He gave the  advice on Joy FM’s news analysis programme, News File on Saturday.
