The Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the ruling (NDC), Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, has been sued by a Singaporean businessman, Toh You Kang, over an alleged $800,000 payment for failed Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) contracts.

Toh You Kang, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director of NSG Group, in an application filed at the High Court in Accra, accused the NDC regional chairman of taking $800,000 for a cable-supply contract with the Electricity Company of Ghana that never materialised.

In the writ, sighted by GhanaWeb, the Singaporean businessman stated that he paid Ashie Moore $800,000 between 2023 and 2024 as part of an arrangement for an ECG contract allegedly secured by Moore, which was valued at millions of dollars.

You Kang also accused the NDC chairman of human rights abuses.
