In the reference to their appeal, the General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic party (NPP), has vehemently disagreed with the Union that, the responsibility for reduction lied on Nana Addo led Government. He says the government does not have power over the crude oil costs – hence, their demand can't be met immediately.
John boadu who changed into talking on neat fm’s morning display, ‘ghana montie’ cited that “the power of the cedi to the greenback and crude strategies at the outside marketplace” also represent to the hike of fuel these days.
“we [NPP] do no longer have manipulate over the crude oil fee,” he advised host kwesi aboagye in response to the gprtu plea to authorities.
In spite of gas rate hikes, the gprtu has but stated it does no longer plan to growth shipping fares in line with an settlement with the ministry of road and transport.
Gasoline fees on monday had extended from ghc 4.Ninety one pesewas to ghc5.18 pesewas and ghc 4. 85 pesewas to ghc5.14 pesewas per litre for diesel and petrol respectively.
This turned into consistent with projections via the institute for energy protection (ies) - the ies attributed this in large part to the depreciation of the cedi.
The chairman of gprtu, kwame kumah in an interview with the media said “it isn't always precise for us every day to awaken and hear that fuel expenses have long gone up . . . Every day getting up and listening to that gas goes up; it received’t cross well for us.”
He pleaded with government to do something about.
But in keeping with john boadu, government cannot use price range for different developmental initiatives to intervene the discount of fuel price.
“if that is the selection of the ghanaian people then this is great because we are there for them. We can try this so all different sports will halt,” he said.
He also mentioned that “what we said all through our marketing campaign time was based on what turned into to be had, however now things have modified. Humans shouldn’t argue based totally on that. Government is working to stabilize the economic system and other things. The npp took over while the entirety turned into in mess.”
“no one is happy with the gasoline hike. I buy petrol myself so i am not satisfied. We must placed measures in vicinity to stabilize things,” he introduced.
