The Chief Executive of the National Petroleum Authority, Mr Godwin Kudzo Tameklo, says his outfit will not spare groups or individuals engaged in illegal fuel trade.
He said the Authority would be tough with its mandate to ensure that the transportation and sale of fuel were carried out lawfully.
Speaking at a meeting with Bono Regional Security Council (REGSEC) during his familiarisation tour in the region, the NPA boss enumerated fuel smuggling, selling of adulterated fuels, operating with an expired license, and operating without proper safety standards as some of the illegal fuel trading.
Mr Godwin Kudzo Tameklo (middle) with the Bono Regional Security Council and other officials Mr Tameklo pleaded with regional ministers across the country to abstain from intervening on behalf of unscrupulous fuel traders.
