General News of Wednesday, 28 June 2017Source: classfmonline.comBOST 'useless' state entity – IMANIIMANI Boss, Franklin CudjoeThe Founding President of think tank IMANI, Franklin Cudjoe, has described the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Limited (BOST) as a needless entity exhausting the country’s resources without any value in return. The Minority has subsequently demanded the “immediate withdrawal of the contaminated product from the market to protect consumers and assurances that this will not recur”. The Minority also said the money lost by the state due to the saga, which it estimated at GHS14.25million, must be retrieved by “surcharging the offending officials at BOST in line with a recent Supreme Court decision”. Commenting on the issue, Mr Cudjoe said: “I am not surprised at all about fuel fraud allegations involving BOST. “BOST has been a draconian drain on the fortunes of government for several years and the new government must not allow it to be hoodwinked into believing BOST can ever return any real value addition.
