The Electricity Company of Ghana has raised concerns over an alarming rate of meter tampering across the country, leading to a surge in technical losses for the company.
Addressing the concern at a press conference on Monday, February 3, the company revealed that in Dansoman alone, approximately 10% of the 70,000 installed meters have been tampered with, causing them to under-record electricity consumption.
Acting Managing Director of ECG, David Boadi Asamoah, issued a stern warning, emphasizing that anyone caught engaging in such illegal activities would face the full force of the law. "We will conduct thorough investigations, and there are laws in this country.
After our investigations, law enforcement agencies like the police will take over.
