The ultramodern library and magistrate court complex projects funded by the Tema Tank Farm (TTF), Ghana’s leading privately-owned petroleum depot headquartered in the capital of the Kpone Katamanso Municipal Assembly in the Greater Accra Region, have been given massive thumbs up by members of the municipality.
The members, including the traditional leaders, described the commissioning of the two state-of-the-art facilities on the same day as “unprecedented” and thanked the management of the company for giving back to the community in which they operate. Speaking at the recent commissioning ceremony, Terminal Director of TTF, Edem Boni, said: “We are giving back to the community in which we are operating”.
Through our research, we identified that the community needed a library to promote education and a court to ensure access to justice”, he explained.
TTF manages the terminal owned by Chase Logistics, both companies being subsidiaries of the CH Group.
The library and the court were commissioned last November to mark the TTF’s 2,000 days without lost time injury (LTI), the first time that a company in the country’s petroleum downstream industry has ever achieved the record.
60-year-old Nii Adjei, a former factory worker who was at the commissioning of the two facilities, said the library complex would enhance the reading culture of the young people in the municipality. The fully furnished magistrate court, according to him, is a perfect venue for the delivery of justice.
