amid sector reforms at stakeholder engagement<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The clarification comes in response to longstanding concerns over alleged fuel diversions and a lack of accountability within the premix fuel distribution system.<\/p>\n<p>TOR, however, made clear that it upholds strict internal protocols and that its responsibility ends once the product leaves its facility under the supervision of multiple regulatory bodies.<\/p>\n<p>The multi-agency approach, the refinery emphasized, is a safeguard for the integrity of the fuel supply chain and a demonstration of TOR\u2019s accountability to both government stakeholders and the Ghanaian public.<\/p>\n<p>The visit by the National Premix Fuel Committee, led by Chairman Hon. Nelson Dafeamekpor, was aimed at deepening collaboration with TOR and reviewing operational practices to improve efficiency, traceability, and fairness in the sector.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div
