NPA chases 45 OMCs for owing more than GH¢ 400m

No more WASSCE, BECE; GES, MoE and NaCCA announce new educational reforms

The National Petroleum Authority (NPA) is going after the directors and shareholders of some 45 Oil Marketing Companies (OMC) over debts running into more than ₵400 million.

These are margins and other levies that have been collected by the OMCs since last year, but they have failed to pay the monies to the NPA.

A total of ¢68 million cedis out of the debt is coming from the Primary Distribution Margin Fund.

Joy Business is learning that these monies are paid by consumers at the pumps which are supposedly to be repaid to the regulator at the end of every operational month.

Proposed actions by NPA

The NPA has maintained that these companies have up until the end of September 2022 to settle these debts.

The authority warns that failure to settle these debts, will result in the publishing of names of the directors and shareholders of these companies in the national dailies.

It has also indicated that it will not hesitate to take the necessary legal against the directors of these firms as an additional action.

Meanwhile, Joy Business has gathered that licenses of some of the companies have been withdrawn and stopped from loading oil in the country.

They were given some timelines, but did not go by this initial plan.
