The Tema Region of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has suffered a fire incident that has damaged major cables running behind the Lube Oil Company in Tema.

The fire, which reportedly broke out around 5:00 pm on Tuesday, December 31, 2024, destroyed the cables, which will need to be replaced as they cannot be salvaged.

This incident caused a temporary power outage for customers in areas such as Adjetey Ansah, the Naval Quarters, Aunty Kate, Leonardo, and Bankuman.

Some of these customers unfortunately had their power restored only the following day.
