Fan Milk apologises for Achimota-Tesano overhead truck accident

 Fan Milk PLC has apologised to motorists and the public for the inconvenience caused by a truck accident involving one of its third-party logistics partners. 

The incident occurred on the Achimota-Tesano overhead bridge on Saturday evening, January 25, 2025.

In a statement, the company expressed regret over the incident, which resulted in significant traffic congestion in the area. 

The truck, operated by Adwenpa Transport Services Limited, was not carrying any products at the time of the accident.

Fortunately, no injuries, fatalities, or damage to other vehicles were reported.

Fan Milk assured the public that its logistics partner is actively collaborating with authorities to investigate the cause of the accident and expedite the removal of the truck to restore normal traffic flow.

“Adwenpa is collaborating with the authorities to review this unfortunate incident. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused roads users, the community and motorists using this route,” the company stated.

 

The truck is said to have toppled, leaving vehicles to navigate the area using a single lane. Fortunately, no injuries or casualties were reported.

The truck driver, who was the only person on board, escaped unharmed.

Eyewitnesses at the scene said the driver claimed another vehicle abruptly crossed his path, forcing him to take evasive action.

This manoeuvre caused him to lose control of the truck, leading to the accident.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability. The report also highlights that Ghana is relatively less vulnerable to increasing trade restrictions from the United States, given that its primary exports—gold and crude oil—are not directly affected by the tariffs introduced by President Trump’s administration. Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs). The intervention, which benefited eleven BDCs, is part of the central bank’s broader strategy to stabilise the cedi and ensure price stability in the petroleum downstream sector. Held on Tuesday, April 29, the auction was priced at a locked exchange rate of GHS 14.28 to the US dollar, with bid offers ranging from GHS 13.85 to GHS 15.55. This move reflects the BoG’s continued effort to deepen forex liquidity and safeguard the domestic fuel supply chain against volatility in global energy markets. By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
