The Ghana National Gas Company Limited (Ghana Gas) has officially debunked rumors circulating on social media regarding a supposed conflict between its Chief Executive Officer, Judith Adjobah Blay, and the Board of Directors. In a formal statement issued on June 6, 2026, the company labeled these reports as false and malicious attempts to project an illusion of discord within the organization’s leadership. The Board, chaired by Kofi Totobi Quakyi, and the management team emphasized that their relationship remains rooted in mutual respect, trust, and a shared dedication to achieving the company’s strategic objectives.
Addressing specific misrepresentations concerning recent human resource decisions, Ghana Gas clarified that the promotion of 50 staff members was a planned initiative to address historical delays in career progression. According to Richard Kirk-Mensah, the Head of Corporate Affairs, these promotions followed an established, transparent process aimed at boosting morale and ensuring the company retains the talent necessary to drive its mandate. The leadership maintained that these internal adjustments are standard administrative actions and not evidence of friction, as some reports had suggested.
Beyond internal governance, Ghana Gas highlighted significant gains in its operational performance. The company reported a 20% increase in production throughput, rising from 100 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCF/D) to 120 MMSCF/D. This growth is a critical factor in enhancing Ghana's energy security, as it ensures a more stable supply of fuel for power generation. The company noted that these efficiencies are instrumental in moderating fuel costs and stabilizing the broader power sector, directly benefiting the national economy.
Looking ahead, Ghana Gas reiterated its commitment to transparency, accountability, and operational excellence. The company urged the public and media stakeholders to disregard unfounded claims that seek to undermine the progress made by the current leadership. By focusing on both personnel development and technical efficiency, Ghana Gas aims to continue its role as a cornerstone of the nation’s energy infrastructure, ensuring that the collaboration between the Board and Management remains focused on long-term sustainability.
