The Ghana Gas Company has in a strongly worded statement, condemned the activities of the Africa Center for Energy Policy (ACEP).<\/p>\n
\u201cGhana Gas condemn the activities of groupings like yours which only to denigrate organizations through the packaging of falsehood without bothering to establish contact to discuss the issues that are of concern to you,\u201d said a statement from Ghana Gas.<\/p>\n
This was in response to a report put out by ACEP on May 20, 2014 raising red flags about some specific dealings the Ghana Gas Company was purportedly engaged in with some international oil companies.<\/p>\n
The report titled: \u2018Ghana Gas, Questionable deals and the national interest, how Ghana\u2019s quest for energy security faces imminent danger\u2019 questioned the basis on which some three agreements were signed by the Ghana Gas Company.<\/p>\n
It also called for the reconstitution of the Ghana Gas Company Board because according to them, the membership of the Deputy Chief of Staff, Dr Valerie Sawyer on the Company\u2019s board is wrong.<\/p>\n
ACEP\u2019s report also disclosed that there was lack of transparency in the activities of Ghana Gas Company and accused government of failing to act decisively on matters of the gas development in Ghana.<\/p>\n
In a statement however, the Corporate Communications Director of the Ghana Gas Company, Alfred Ogbamey accused ACEP of circulating a conjectured report full of \u201cmisinformation, inaccurate and false information.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said it is regrettable that \u201cdespite our increasing and open communication policy\u2026the center could put together what was supposed to be a report on the operations and activities of Ghana Gas without input from Ghana Gas.\u201d<\/p>\n
