ECG disconnects the Osu Police Barracks due to an unauthorized connection.

The national revenue mobilization team of the Electricity Company of Ghana removed three blocks at the police barracks at Osu in Accra due to an unlawful connection (connected power directly without a meter).

On Tuesday, the task team was making its routine rounds to reclaim money from consumers when it came across the illegality.

Along with pursuing persons who owe ECG debts, the task team takes advantage of the chance to look for illicit links.

We have the right to disconnect first before dealing with problems since the connection is illegal. Laila Abubakari, the manager in charge of external communications, spoke to Citi News.

The disconnecting is a part of a nationwide operation to recover money that consumers owe ECG and to assess the status of all meters.

The Ghana police would need to visit ECG, where a 12-month bill would be generated for them, she continued.

When they pay the premium, she claimed the electricity will be restored.

“The administration block also owes, but we have spared that facility while we further discuss the amount involved owing to security concerns. The gap is because we view the police housing facilities (blocks) as a general facility.

After disconnecting the Ghana Post Company due to a GH89,000 debt, the ECG Revenue Mobilization Taskforce was held prisoner for nearly 30 minutes.
