Carol Annang observed that the effect of the pandemic on financing for Ghanaian SMEs may be felt many years down the line. So, she noted that even though, this programme has a short-term outlook, its overall contribution to these SMEs would be much longer lasting.

“This is something both IIA and Tullow Ghana can appreciate, given our shared commitment to strengthening local supply chains.”

Mr Wissam Al Monthiry, the Managing Director of Tullow Ghana opined that Tullow Ghana has the development of SMEs and their participation in the oil and gas industry at heart.

“As a company, the development of local capacity for participation in the oil and gas industry remains our priority.”
