Fuel shortage in Ghana is imminent following the industrial action announced by the leadership of the Ghana National Petroleum Tanker Drivers Union.
Petrol tanker drivers are protesting delays in the approval of a framework guiding driver and mate service conditions.
The indefinite sit-down strike started on Tuesday, May 21.
Executive Director of the Chamber of Petroleum Consumers Ghana (COPEC ) Duncan Amoah feared that this is likely to cause fuel shortage.
“The oil marketing companies cannot get you the products without those tanker drivers and what that adds to the woes of the Ghanaian is that if that strike is not called off within the next 48 to 72 hours, we may soon have to queue to get fuel because the supply at the various fuel stations is likely to run out,” he said.
