The Ghanaian government, yesterday, settled part of its debt to the West African Gas Pipeline Company (WAPCo) and Nigeria Gas Association, NGA, following the first round of talks with the Nigerian authorities.
It was learnt that this negotiation, will continue as yesterday’s payment of $10 million buys Ghana some time to conclude negotiations to curtail the cut in gas supply from Nigeria. WAPCo had threatened to cut gas supply to Ghana on Friday, over $180 million debt owed NGA, but it suspended the decision after the deadline for payment elapsed last night.
Harriet Wereko Brobbey, Corporate Affairs Director for the West Africa Gas Pipeline Company, told a Ghanaian news outfit that the company is still transporting natural gas to Ghana.
