When President took power in 2017, he revealed his vision of establishing a petroleum hub in and for the country. Thus, his government first established the Petroleum Hub Development Corporation (PHDC) in 2020 through an Act of Parliament, Act 1053, which is the Petroleum Hub Development Corporation Act, 2020. The PHDC was to drive the promotion and development of the hub in terms of securing licenses, permits, and other required government support. Yesterday, President Akufo-Ad­do cut the sod to begin the construction of the $60 billion petroleum hub in the Jomoro Municipality of the Western Region. So far, there is much information about the hub, part of which talks about its benefits.
