Due to an outstanding electrical bill of GHc1 million, the Ministry of Finance is scheduled to be cut off from the national grid.
The ministry has been using electricity for the last 10 months without paying the monthly bills, which has led to an accumulation of GHc1, 025,918.00.
Furthermore, the government has not released funding to pay off obligations owed by several municipal and district legislatures.
In order to convey the appropriate message to authorities, ECG decided to disconnect the finance ministry because, according to sources within the organisation, the problem had to be tackled from the ground up.
According to information obtained by Citi News, an ECG team is scheduled to meet with Dr. Amin Adam, the Minister of Finance, in order to come to a consensus.
The ECG is also pursuing Ghana’s Parliament over a GHc23 million debt owed to the power distributor. The ECG national task force has stated that the national task force will proceed to disconnect parliament if the debt is not settled.
