Pay your bills now or we’ll disconnect you – ECG workers warn Minister

Workers of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) have cautioned the Ashanti Regional Minister, Simon Osei-Mensah to settle outstanding bills accrued at his private residences or face disconnection from the national grid.

The Minister’s actions have sparked outrage among the ECG workers, particularly after he recently ordered the arrest of the company’s Ashanti East Manager, Mark Wiafe Asomani.

In response to the Minister’s actions, the Workers’ Union of the ECG issued a statement demanding an apology.

Despite this, they have ensured that customer service remains unaffected.

They maintain that the Minister’s actions are unacceptable and that he must be held accountable for his actions.

We have a series of actions to take
