| dc.description | This document assesses Ghana’s fuel import patterns and urges rapid sulphur cuts to protect health. It shows private firms have dominated imports since 2007, while diesel and gasoline limits—3,000 ppm and 1,000 ppm—trail the EU’s 10 ppm, enabling harmful price–quality arbitrage. It outlines the ECOWAS path to Afri-4 (50 ppm) by 2020, notes missed Afri-2 steps, and cites analysis that a $2.98 billion refinery upgrade could yield $32 billion in health benefits over ten years. It argues TOR’s small, debt-constrained share should not delay cleaner standards, and urges immediate 50/10 ppm adoption with phased refinery relief and regional alignment. | en |
