The Minister of Energy, John Abdulai Jinapor, has conducted an inspection tour of the Tema Harbour to evaluate the status of approximately 2,500 containers procured by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) but left uncleared at the port.
This visit underscores the Minister's dedication to addressing inefficiencies within the energy sector and promoting the prudent use of national resources.
The uncleared containers, containing critical materials purchased under the previous administration, have accumulated demurrage charges amounting to an alarming GHS 1.5 billion.
The situation reveals significant lapses in resource management and inter-agency coordination, resulting in a severe financial burden on the nation.
