National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Kofi Adams has rubbished claims that his party sold contaminated fuel to some companies during the Mahama-led governance.
He insisted that the claims are “total false” and meant to tarnish their reputation in the on-going Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) saga.
“The NPP just want to cover up their mess so they want to rope in others to paint them black. What they are saying is a lie. Nothing of that sort happened in the NDC era. We never sold any contaminated fuel in the past,” Kofi Adams who is a former Board Member of BOST said in an interview with Kwesi Aboagye.
This follows investigations conducted by the two state security agencies into the controversial sale of the contaminated fuel to Movenpiina Company Limited and onward to Zup Oil.
Some aspects of the intercepted report have it that – between 2015 and 2016 under NDC, BOST sold contaminated products to 38 companies at the full glare of NPA officials but no red flag was ever raised. It said the new management followed the same convention and practice and has therefore not erred.
Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’, Mr. Adams however challenged President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to launch a “proper” investigation into BOST activities.
To him the report is just a cover-up process to divert attention to the NDC.
“I dare President Nana Addo to investigate this issue and if some truth is found, then appropriate sanctions must be taken. It is never true that the NDC sold contaminated fuel. It’s just a cover up tactics by the NPP,” he noted.
Background
According to Citi News, a document naming at least Thirty Eight (38) companies without a National Petroleum Authority (NPA), license, yet the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST), sold Twenty Million, Five Hundred and Ninety Thousand (20, 590,000) litres of contaminated fuel to them in 2015 and 2016 respectively.
This means the illegality happened under the leadership of the former BOST Managing Director, Kwame Awuah-Darko, who according to some staff of BOST, is seeking to have his rot covered up by the raging brouhaha over contaminated fuel sale under the new MD.
The document shows that in 2015 alone, between March, April, May, July and August, thirteen firms received different quantities of contaminated fuel from BOST.
In all, 8, 190, 000 litres was sold out, although the profit made is not known.
In 2016 however, the companies that received the fuel were 25 in number, with the quantity of fuel sold standing at 12, 400,000 litres.
BNI Clears BOST MD
The Bueau of National Investigations (BNI) and the National Security on Tuesday cleared the Managing Director of the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) Company Limited, Alfred Obeng Boateng, of any wrongdoing in the sale of 5 million litres of contaminated fuel.
This follows investigations conducted by the two state security agencies into the controversial sale of the contaminated fuel to Movenpiina Company Limited.

Mr Adams, you are the National Organiser of the NDC , not the MD of BOST . You can't therefore be privy to all the operational matters of the company . How come you make such a categorical statement ? Just concentrate on your job and let those who work/worked at BOST confirm or deny what is said to have happened . The days when everyone connected to the party claims to be the know all should be a thing of the past . Ghanaians are discerning .
VERY SOON HE WILL SPEW NONSSENSE THAT HE NEVER STOLE 51.2 MILLION CEDIS OF THE STRUGGLING POOR TAX PAYERS MONEY WITH WOYOME, ODWAN NUA KOFI ADAMS
This Adams Kofi character was on the Board of NPA or one such similar board in that sector. They thought they had cornered Obeng Boateng but they have never understood the game. Today, Awuah-Darko and Mahama's dealings where they were stealing Ghana's money like a fish gulping down water, has been exposed and we have a few more criminal NDC miscreants prepped up for the huge action by the Office of Special Prosecutor and the Auditor General's work, cut out for him in retrieving Ghana's loot. Awuah-Darko, Kofi Adams and a host of NDC ***barred word*** have just one step away from the beautiful gates of Nsawam. It is sizzling hot ready to thunder fantastically to accelerate Ghana on the great path of progress and prosperity. Kudos to Obeng Boateng, kudos to the Min of Energy, the BNI, and all the relevant departments and agencies who heard and heeded the great patriotic call of the incorruptible President of the Great Republic of Ghana, President William Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo to be responaible citizens not spectators. Ghana is on fire for a great new agenda and it is here.
the NDC's intention was to nail the current BOST boss and unfortunately for them their 'elaborate' plan has failed to materialize. Now they find that their own man has been the brain behind the whole episode. Their only way out is to blame the BNI for a report that has been produced after investigation. How do you accuse somebody who was not in office at the time of the incident for a crime and leave out the person who was in charge at the time. This case I suggest must be fully investigated and the SPECIAL PROSECUTOR should take over.
There are some people like this very guy even if you Christine them "WISE" and Solomon to it they will still be fuuulls.
I wonder how ***barred word*** npp can be and when they are criticise, they come after you, what did they do to JM and now Ghanaians know the true ***barred word*** in Ghana. After drumming corruption in opposition, now they are caught and all they do is turn around and balm others. Without admitting that NDC were a nations rackers, and npp was voted for, in six months from ken bond, bawumia loan and BOST, what name should we give, nation looters, ***barred word*** and incompetence of 110 miniters
