The Member of Parliament for Bortianor-Ngleshie Amanfrom, Honourable Sylvester Tetteh, has revealed that he has parked his V8 and resorted to using his mother’s car because fuel has become too expensive.
Speaking during an interview on Peace Fm’s morning show Kokrokoo, Honourable Mensah said using his V8 would cost him Ghc 2,000 per week to fuel, money he simply cannot afford.
“I’ve parked my V8 and using my mother’s car. I can’t afford the petrol price. With the V8, I buy fuel at 2000 cedis every week. It means every month, I’m spending 8000 cedis just on petrol,” he said.
“My salary cannot even cover that, so I have parked my car and now using a car that I don’t have to spend that much on petrol,” he stated.
The price of diesel shot up to GH¢23.49 per litre with petrol selling at GH¢17.99 per litre, with new prices taking effect Tuesday, November 1, 2022.
