ECG Staff Continue Protests Against Managing Director Amidst ‘Dumsor’
Information available indicates that staff of the Electricity Company Ghana, Accra East branch have laid down their tools in protest against the Managing Director of the company.
The workers are arguing that the continuous stay of the Managing Director of ECG, Kwame Agyeman Budu will lead to the collapse of the company.
During an interview on Accra based Citi FM and monitored by myactiveonline.com, an affected customer said ECG staff refused to attend to him.
“I am here to seek clarity on some challenges I am having with my meter but when I arrived here I was told they are embarking on a demonstration. This will not help the customers,” the customer bemoaned.
The workers for some time now have been demanding the removal of the current Managing Director of the company over what they describe as “incompetence” on his part. They also alleged that several petitions to Mr Agyeman Budu to involve its rank and file in revenue mobilization since 2020 have been ignored.
The workers claimed the MD’s continuous stay at post will collapse the electricity distribution company because to them, “he is grossly deficient when it comes to matters relating to administrative and corporate governance”.
They have also accused the MD of breaching procurement processes.
