The Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Operations and Technical at the Petroleum Hub Development Corporation, Onasis Rosely Kobby, has praised the transformative impact of the Minister of Energy and Green Transition, John Abdulai Jinapor, in the energy sector, particularly in the power industry.
He noted that when the minister took office, the sector faced major challenges, with unreliable power supply affecting homes and industries.
In his brief closing remarks during the minister’s visit to the PHDC on Tuesday, October 21, 2025, Kobby highlighted that since assuming office, Hon. John Jinapor has effectively tackled these issues, ensuring that power outages, locally referred to as ‘dumsor,’ have been significantly reduced.
“Your ratings are truly impressive, and people are highly satisfied with your work. Some even joke that you’ve become ‘boring’ because they no longer experience dumsor. You have done remarkably well, and we are grateful,” he told the minister.
Onasis Kobby also assured the minister of significant progress in the development of the Petroleum Hub project by the time of his next visit.
While expressing gratitude to John Jinapor for the visit, Kobby promised that the staff and management of the corporation would continue to work diligently to attract investors to the hub, which is projected to create 780,000 jobs upon completion.
“We were honoured to have you here. We promise that by your next visit to Jomoro, significant progress will have been made on the site. We won’t let you down,” he said.
The visit by John Jinapor forms part of his working and familiarisation tour of agencies under his ministry.
