TOR: Three-member IMC sworn in

The Minister of Energy, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has sworn in a three-member Interim Management Committee (IMC) to oversee the affairs of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR), as part of efforts to restructure and revamp it.

The chairman of the IMC is Mr Nobert Cormla-Djamposu Anku.

The other members are Mr William Ntim Boadu and Mr Okyere Baffuor Sarpong.

The committee has been tasked to, among others, ensure the smooth transition from the outgone directors, undertake technical and human resource audits, as well as receive and assess viable partnerships for TOR.

Speaking after the swearing-in ceremony at the refinery, the minister noted that TOR and its crippling debts, infrastructural issues and equipment have been well noted, and that since the 4th Republic, every president has thought about value addition to Ghana’s natural resources.

Dr Prempeh urged the staff of the refinery to put all rancour behind them, cooperate with the IMC and work hard to ensure the success of the refinery.
