“If we don’t get supplies by the end of Friday, September 27, the entire system will be dried up,” Mr Kumi said.

In response, the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) has moved to reassure the public, attributing the shortages to logistical challenges with BDCs.

A source at TOR confirmed that the issues have been resolved, with supply expected to normalize in the coming days.
