Chief Executive of the Chamber of Bulk Oil Distributors, Dr Patrick Ofori, has urged Ghanaians to recognise the crucial role of the Bank of Ghana (BoG) in cushioning the impact of rising fuel prices. “I think you cannot actually be too insensitive or ungrateful to Bank of Ghana,” he said, noting that the regulator had consistently supported the sector with foreign exchange allocations to stabilise fuel prices. It reduced a bit in August to about $190, which was from the central bank alone. He pointed to the efforts of NPA’s Abass Tasunti, who was also on the program, as evidence that the authorities are fully engaged in the task of keeping fuel prices in check. For him, the sustained allocation of foreign exchange to importers has been key to keeping fuel prices from spiralling further out of control.
