Energy Ministry Dismisses Aviation Fuel Shortage Reports

Reports have circulated that Ghana is facing a shortage of Aviation Turbine Kerosene (ATK), potentially disrupting airline operations—prompting concerns that flights could be grounded due to depleted fuel reserves. What We Found The Ministry of Energy and Green Transition officially denied any ATK shortage in a statement on July 24, 2025, reassuring stakeholders that sufficient fuel is available for aircraft operations. Ghana recently received an ATK shipment of 11,984 metric tonnes, with 4,583 MT already discharged to the Petroleum Warehousing and Storage Ltd. in the past two days, and the remainder being offloaded at Tema Oil Refinery and Ridge depots—expected to finish by July 25. Maintenance on the ATK jetty pipeline was completed, further enhancing fuel security; the Ministry emphasized there is “no cause for alarm” and urged the public to disregard false reports. Deputy Minister Richard Gyan-Mensah also engaged […]

Ekitike: Isak’s Partner or Replacement at Newcastle?

Newcastle’s pursuit of Hugo Ekitike from Frankfurt has sparked questions: is he coming to partner Alexander Isak or ready to replace him? And with Liverpool reportedly eyeing Isak, the plot deepens. 🔍 Isak Isn’t for Sale (Yet) Newcastle insist Isak is not for sale, despite LFC's rumored £120–£130 million interest. Isak remains central to Eddie Howe’s plans, having signed until 2028 with strong club support. Ekitike: Competition or Cover? Some fans fear Ekitike is a long-term replacement, should Isak depart. But reports and club insiders say the intent is pairing: Ekitike adds depth and tactical support alongside Isak. Newcastle’s bid—around £69.5–80 million—signals serious investment, not just a backup signing. Liverpool’s Role Liverpool has formally approached Newcastle about Isak, though no bid yet—suggesting they’re preparing if Newcastle signals sell. If Isak moves, Liverpool may shift to chase Ekitike instead—leaving Newcastle to balance their strike options. What […]

Boeing Fuel Switches Safe, Says FAA After Air India Crash

Following the preliminary report into the June 12 Air India Flight 171 crash, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Boeing have reassured airlines and global regulators that the design of the fuel control switch locks on Boeing aircraft—including the 787 involved—is not a safety hazard and does not require an airworthiness directive at this time. Key Points Both engines temporarily lost thrust after the fuel-control switches were moved from “RUN” to “CUTOFF”, triggering the crash investigation. The switches include a spring-lock mechanism and guard—FAA and Boeing affirm the design is safe and not defective. A 2018 FAA advisory instructed airlines to inspect these switches, but it was not mandatory, and Boeing has told airlines no additional action is required. Stakeholder Response Despite industry reassurance, India and South Korea have started their own inspections of fuel switch locks, referencing the AAIB’s […]

Ghana Link Refutes Claims of Broken‑Down Scanners at KIA

On July 14, 2025, Ghana Link Network Services Ltd., which operates the Integrated Customs Management System (ICUMS) at Kotoka International Airport’s Cargo Village, publicly denied reports that its scanners had failed—reports which claimed that only sniffer dogs were being used to inspect goods. Core Clarification Ghana Link stated categorically that all five scanners are fully operational and maintained: four Smiths Heimann models for exports and one Rapiscan Eagle A25 for imports. The company emphasised that, however, sniffer dogs are used occasionally as supplemental screening, based on credible intelligence by the Narcotics Control Commission—not due to scanner breakdowns. Standard Operating Procedure Ghana Link clarified the standard workflow: Inbound cargo moves directly from aircraft to scanners before customs clearance. Outbound cargo undergoes document checks, mandatory scanning, secure storage, and then loading. Sniffer dog deployment occurs selectively, based on specific intelligence—never as a substitute for […]

Families Demand Answers After Fuel Switches Cut Off Before Air India Crash

Following the tragic crash of Air India Flight AI171 on June 12, 2025, preliminary findings from India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) have revealed that both engine fuel-control switches were manually switched to “cut-off” seconds after takeoff—cutting off fuel supply and causing loss of thrust. Victims’ families, devastated by the loss of 260 lives onboard and on the ground, are now demanding transparent answers, seeking clarity on whether this action was accidental, deliberate, or the result of software misconfiguration. What the Report Found Both fuel switches moved from RUN to CUTOFF in rapid succession moments after liftoff; cockpit audio captured one pilot questioning the other— “Why did you cut it off?”—while the other responded, “I didn't do it”. These switches are designed to be positive-lock out guarded, making accidental activation highly unlikely . Families’ Reaction & Demands Relatives criticize the […]
