The Ministry of Finance may face disconnection from the national grid over an outstanding electricity debt of over GHc1 million
Despite consuming power for over ten months, during this period, the Ministr failed to settle its monthly bills, resulting in an accumulation of GHc1,025,918.00 bill.
It has been revealed that the ministry failed to release funds to various municipal and district assemblies to settle their debts.
According to sources within ECG, the issue must be addressed at its root, leading to their decision to disconnect the finance ministry to send the right signal to authorities.
In the meantime,a team from the ECG is expected to engage with the Minister for Finance, Dr. Amin Adam, to reach a consensus.
The ECG is also pursuing Ghana’s Parliament over a GHc23 million debt owed to the power distributor. The ECG national task force has stated that the national task force will proceed to disconnect parliament if the debt is not settled.
