Vice President of the Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) Marketers Association (LPGMA), Gabriel Kumi, has warned that the shortage of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) could worsen in the coming days.
He said, if supplies do not improve, gas stations could face widespread shutdowns by the weekend.
“My checks this morning indicate that about 70% of LPG outlets in the Greater Accra Metropolis have run out of gas. If the situation does not improve, this could rise to about 80% and if the situation is not averted, by close of tomorrow, we expect all LPG stations in Greater Accra to run out of gas”.
According to him, if the situation persists, it will lead to the close down of many Gas stations, as the ‘’No Gas’’ signage would be erected.
His comment comes after some Gas users lamented over the shortage of Gas for domestic use.
