Bolgatanga Central Member of Parliament, Isaac Adongo has said the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) currently owes GHS68 billion in debt despite increasing tariffs several times.
He attributed this to fiscal recklessness on the part of the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration. "If this is not recklessness or mismanagement then what is it?
As we speak ECG is GHS68 billion after you have increased the electricity tariff multiple folds.
This country is indeed a crime scene," the member of the Board of the Bank of Ghana said on the Big Issue on TV3 Friday, February 28 while commenting on the state of the National Address delivered by President John Dramani Mahama on Thursday, February 27.
