The fuel contamination saga is only a foretaste of the grand corruption at the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Ltd (BOST), as more rot will be revealed to the public in the coming days, Ningo Prampram MP Sam George has said.
“There are loads of scandals at BOST, we don’t want to muddy the waters but I can tell you that there is a US$130 million scandal also at BOST,” he said.
The MP said some products were imported into the country “without approval from the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) and when NPA stopped the product from being discharged, a call came from the Flagstaff House because the BOST MD called somebody at the Flagstaff House and the product was given the all-clear, against NPA’s approval”.
He was worried that a lot of corrupt practices at BOST had been left unchecked and described the Nana Akufo-Addo government as a corrupt administration throwing dust in the eyes of Ghanaians.
Mr George, who was interacting with Moro Awudu on Class FM’s Executive Breakfast Show, said on Monday July 10: “You have not even heard 50 per cent of the information we have, the detailed information with evidence available to us.”
He said Minority MPS have watertight evidence on the corrupt practices at BOST and are, thus, able to expose government and “every time they have to scramble”.
His latest comment comes in the wake of over five million litres of off-spec oil sold to unlicensed companies leading to the loss of revenue to government.

LOOK AT THIS FUULISH BOY.YOU GUYS CREATED THE MESS AND YOU COME BACK TO BLAME NPP.NANA ADDO SHOULD JAIL THIS GUYS AND STOP WAITING FOR SPECIAL PROSECUTOR.
Ningo-Prampram has than more harm to themselves than the nation by voting for an idi*t to represent them in parliament. They should consider ET Mensah ' s time to this day and see if they don't deserve a better person with honour than this fo*l imposed on them by Ibrahim Mahama to do his dirty work for him. The people of Ningo-Prampram should have supported ET Mensah's bid to be member of the state council to deal directly with the president for development than putting this pig in parliament. He is a disgrace to them. I think they should find some honorable person withing them for the 2020 since retaining this guy will mean so many about that constituency. You made a mistake and don't repeat it again.
they should really investigate what happened when Kingsley was at BOST and TOR. Why was there so much less less oil consumption in 2016...illegal imports? What about unpaid bills from BOST to oil service companies? What about publishing corporate accounts on time? What was the deal TOR did with BOST having the same MD..Why was BOST allowed to come back in the commercial storage market anyway after it was told to stay out? The Mahama Government has done tremendous damage to the prospect of independent storage companies being able to procure finance from foreign banks as a result, and some of them have incurred big losses on their significant investments as a result. Let's not start about the Ameri deal and the Karpower deal. Or the fuel oil supply contract for the Karpower deal...
When will this NDC incompetent folks keep their ***barred word*** mouth shut? Why an educated people always resort to cheap politics with no facts and forget that Ghanaian's are literate and no longer lives under darkness. You were in power and misused our resources and money and thinking about good soup and lavish lifestyle so shut the up and let Nana rule the country to the promise land.
How do you create a mess and blame other persons on it. This is the reason why people are asked to proceed on leave as their continued stay in office can cause a lot of havoc just like Awuah Darko has done.
THAT IS WHY THE BOST MD SHOULD SACK ALL THE NDC INFORMANTS WHO WILL NOT GIVE OTHER WORKERS AT BOST THE PEACE NEEDED FOR WORK. NDC ALWAYS USES HEARSAY 3RD PARTY UNSUBSTANTIATED INFO AS WATER TIGHT INFORMATION.
This NDC boy must shut his smelling mouth... you NDC cr!m!nals supervised the rot at BOST all these years... The current govt is only 6 months old and trying to sort out the mess you guys left behind.
