Petroleum Tanker Drivers declare industrial action over neglected road infrastructure

Petroleum Tanker Drivers and Liquified Petroleum Gas (L.P.G) Drivers have announced their intention to embark on an industrial action as a means to demand the rehabilitation of neglected roads in key petroleum enclaves across Tema, Takoradi, Kumasi, and Buipe. The National Chairman of the Tanker Drivers Union, George Nyaunu, expressed deep frustration with the government’s failure to address their longstanding appeals for road repairs, leading to this decisive action set to commence on Monday, June 26, 2023.

The strike will entail a complete cessation of petroleum product transportation from the affected enclaves, in the hopes that the resulting disruption to the supply chain will compel the relevant authorities to address the deplorable state of the roads. Nyaunu underscored the dangers posed by these dilapidated routes, citing instances where even non-liquid goods trucks have toppled over. Considering the potential catastrophic consequences of an accident involving a petroleum tanker, the urgency to address this critical issue is paramount.

In addition to the inherent safety risks, Nyaunu emphasized the detrimental impact on the drivers themselves. Years of driving on these treacherous roads have taken a toll on their physical health and overall well-being, prompting a strong call for immediate action.

Nyaunu issued a stern warning, asserting that the strike will persist until the authorities demonstrate a firm commitment to a concrete timeline for the repair of the petroleum enclave roads. This powerful demonstration serves as a rallying cry for urgent attention and resolution, underscoring the gravity of the situation that affects not only the livelihoods of the drivers but also the safety and welfare of the wider public.

As the strike unfolds, the response of the relevant authorities will be closely watched, with implications for the uninterrupted supply of petroleum products across the country. The government’s willingness to address this pressing issue and find a swift resolution will play a crucial role in mitigating the potential economic and public impact of the strike.

The industrial action by the Petroleum Tanker Drivers and L.P.G Drivers serves as a stark reminder of the consequences that can arise from neglected infrastructure. The urgent need for comprehensive road rehabilitation in the petroleum enclaves calls for immediate attention and effective action, underscoring the significance of infrastructure investment and maintenance in supporting vital industries and ensuring the well-being of all stakeholders.
