The Managing Director of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), Samuel Dubik Mahama, has revealed that Senior High Schools across the country collectively owe the company over GH₵45 million.
He clarified that the recent disconnection of Accra Academy was part of a broader nationwide initiative to recover outstanding debts.
Mr. Dubik Mahama expressed concern about the escalating debt stock from various customers, emphasizing the necessity for prompt actions to address the issue.
“Currently, the schools’ bill is pushing towards almost GHC45m in arrears,” Mr Dubik Mahama told TV3 in an interview, adding “Across the nation, put everything together we should be in the region of GH₵2.5bn debt based on debt stock that I am seeing.”
