NPA EDUCATES CONSUMERS ON “NTEASE KURUWA” AT CHRIST THE KING BUSINESS FAIR



The National Petroleum Authority (NPA), through its Consumer Services Directorate, has intensified public education on the use of the 10-Litre Measuring Can, popularly known as “Ntease Kuruwa,” to address suspected under-delivery of fuel at petroleum retail outlets.

The month-long sensitization exercise was undertaken during the business fair organised by the Parish Youth Council of Christ the King Catholic Church, Accra.

The fair was held on the 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th August 2026 at the Christ the King Hall Car Park.

The programme brought together artisans, food vendors, graphic designers, dressmakers, other clothing-sector operators, members of the congregation and the public.

It provided the Directorate an opportunity to educate consumers, promote the NPA Call Centre and increase public awareness of the Authority’s consumer-protection activities.

The sensitization focused mainly on the use of the 10-litre measuring can as a practical tool for verifying the quantity of fuel dispensed at petroleum retail outlets and on the NPA call centre.

Consumers were informed of their right to request a quantity test using the measuring can whenever they suspect that the volume of fuel dispensed does not correspond with the quantity purchased.

NPA officers demonstrated how the test is conducted and explained how consumers could correctly read the measuring can to determine whether the pump was dispensing within the prescribed limits or not.

Mrs Maureen Adwoa Duori, Head of Consumer Education and Stakeholder Engagement at the NPA, said the initiative was intended to equip consumers with the knowledge and confidence required to protect their interests at the pump.

“The 10-litre measuring can or ‘Ntease Kuruwa,’ gives consumers a practical means of verifying the quantity of fuel delivered. We encourage consumers who suspect under-delivery to request a test and report any unresolved concerns to the NPA through our Call Centre,” she said.

The education generated considerable interest, with many participants indicating that it was their first time learning about the measuring can and their right to request its use at a petroleum retail outlet.

Some participants alleged that attendants at certain outlets had previously discouraged them from requesting quantity tests.

According to them, the attendants suggested that conducting the test would be a waste of time or would not necessarily prevent consumers from being short-changed. Concerns were also raised about the limited visibility and accessibility of the 10-litre measuring can at some retail outlets.

Henos Energy Commissions Ghana’s First Drive-Thru Cylinder Distribution Outlet to Advance 24-Hour Economy

Henos Energy has officially commissioned Ghana’s first Drive-Thru Cylinder Distribution Outlet (CDO) at East Legon Hills in Accra, introducing an innovative approach to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) distribution.

It is aimed at improving convenience, promoting safety and supporting the government’s 24-hour economy policy.

The facility, which operates under the Cylinder Recirculation Model (CRM), enables motorists to conveniently drive in and exchange empty LPG cylinders for filled ones, reducing waiting time and making LPG more accessible, particularly for customers who require gas outside the traditional working hours.

In her remarks at the ceremony on Friday, the Director of GAS at the NPA, Madam Akua Ntiwaa Kwakye, praised Henos Energy for emerging as a pacesetter in the implementation of the CRM.

The Head of Gas and Commercial Regulation at the NPA, Mr. Obed Kraine Boachie, described the Drive-Thru CDO as a timely innovation that will make LPG cylinder exchange more convenient for consumers.

The NPA team present at the event also comprised the Director for Corporate Affairs, Mrs. Maria Edith Oquaye and the Head Business Development, Mr. Ossei Yaw Danquah.
