STATEMENT: No Rot At Ghana Gas… Story By Herald Newspapers Passes For Irresponsible Media Aggression

STATEMENT: No Rot At Ghana Gas... Story By Herald Newspapers Debunked

Ghana National Gas company has debunked media reportage of rot in its operations.

This comes after the Herald newspaper had reported that Ghana Gas is rotten, but the Akufo-Addo government doesn’t want to talk about it, fearing it will be accused of being out to damage the Assin Central Member of Parliament, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, who has been the board chairman since 2021.

However, in a statement signed by the company’s communications director, Ernest Owusu Bempah, it categorically described the report as completed false, malicious and unfounded.

“There has never been any rot association with our operations here at Ghana Gas, and we find it unusual for a journalistic outlet to throw away cardinal journalistic standard of fairness and responsibility to tell the truth as it engages in news reporting”, part of the statement read.

“Indeed, there is no scintilla of evidence to back the Herald story,” Mr. Owusu-Bempah noted.

Ghana National gas company is therefore demanding a retraction and a formal apology from the Herald newspaper to repair the damage caused to the organization.

“Ghana Gas remain committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in all its operations”.
