Concerned Citizens of Kroboland, a group that describes itself as concerned about the ongoing blackout in the Eastern Region’s Lower Manya and Yilo Krobo regions, has voiced its concern.
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) employees have refused to work in the two districts due to safety concerns following violent resistance to a scheme to reinstall prepaid meters in homes.
The sticking point was a choice to send military personnel to accompany workers installing the meters.
Additionally, due to alleged danger to their life, this led the engineers of ECG to withdraw.
