Tanker drivers threaten strike over deplorable VALCO-TOR-Kpone road
The Ghana National Petroleum Tanker Drivers Union has threatened to embark on a sit-down strike over the deplorable condition of the road stretching from the Valco Roundabout through the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) to Kpone.
The union says the poor state of the road has made operations increasingly difficult, despite the route serving several major industrial facilities and being critical to the movement of petroleum products.
As a result, the Ghana National Petroleum Tanker Drivers Union has announced plans to lay down their tools on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, in protest against what it described as the ill-treatment and neglect of its members.
