The managers of the facility have been served with a notice to report to their office for further interrogation.

The disconnection comes as part of efforts by the ECG revenue task force to collect debts owed to the company and disconnect supply to defaulting customers including state agencies.

The ECG Taskforce on March 14, 2022, also disconnected the power supply to Terminal 3 and other offices of the Kotoka International Airport over unpaid bills. Sources reported the management of KIA owed ECG close to GHC49 million in unpaid bills.

Other agencies that have suffered power cuts by the task force include the Accra Sports Stadium with the team also storming parliament on Wednesday to cut the power supply to the legislative house over its indebtedness.
