The newly appointed Board Chairman of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has urged the ECG management to refine its procurement processes.
He believes this will lead to significant savings for the company.
In his swearing-in speech, the Majority Leader stated, “We should explore ways to improve our procurement processes and reduce costs. By reinvesting these savings into enhanced services and infrastructure, we can foster a cycle of efficiency and growth.”
Additionally, he urged the management to adopt innovative financing tools such as green bonds.
He noted that this approach would support infrastructure upgrades and align with global sustainability trends, helping to secure a greener future for Ghana.
“Investing in our workforce is essential. By providing comprehensive training programmes and a performance-based rewards system, we can boost employee morale and productivity. And by enhancing safety standards, we can reduce workplace incidents and create a culture of excellence.
“Finally, let us prioritise regulatory compliance and transparency. By fortifying our compliance office and developing mechanisms for regular public reporting, we can enhance trust and accountability,” the Effutu lawmaker added.
