The Executive Secretary of Africa Refiners and Distributors Association (ARDA), Anibor Kragha has showered praises on the performance of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) as the best regulator he has come across in Africa.
Giving reason for his praise, he said the Ghana’s petroleum downstream regulator had put in place a robust regulatory environment which is evident in the country’s downstream petroleum sector.
“For me, NPA is the premier and best regulatory agency I have seen in the 21st century in terms of technology deployment in creating a level playing field for all operators involved in the sector” Mr Kragha said this when he paid a courtesy call on the Chief Executive of NPA, Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hamid.
The Africa Refiners boss therefore commended the NPA for its resilient efforts aimed at sanitizing the downstream industry in Ghana.
He thanked management of NPA for the continuous support to the association and extending helping hand to other regulators and players of the industry on the continent.
For his part, Dr. Abdul-Hamid renewed the Authority’s commitment to protecting the industry and consumers, by ensuring the right initiatives are implemented for the good of the sector and the country.
He was hopeful the industry’s best years are ahead and reiterated his commitment and that of his staff, to running an efficient and results oriented downstream industry for the gain of their partners and consumers.
