The Tema Region of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has disconnected 310 customers, mainly for non-payment of electricity consumed.
The disconnections were done as part of the company’s nationwide one month revenue mobilization programme which began on March 20, 2023 and is expected to end on April 20, 2023.
The 310 disconnected customers were part of a total of 2,344 customers who were visited within the first two weeks of the exercise.
These customers include all individuals, small, medium and large-scale organizations.
The organization rallied the management team and all back-end staff from the very top to the bottom, who do not usually deal with customers directly to partake in this activity.
The members of the Board of Directors also joined in this exercise.
The Tema Region General Manager for ECG, Ing. Ankomah Emmanuel encouraged customers to do well to pay up their bills to avoid debt and possible disconnection.
The Tema Region General Manager for ECG added that all customers are to make all cash payments at ECG offices and to make cheque payments at banks. Alternatively, payments can be made through the phone short code *226#.
Ing. Ankomah added that the exercise will continue, while hoping that more customers will work towards clearing up their debts owed ECG.
