A 32-year-old woman has been electrocuted at Fetteh Kakraba in the Gomoa East Metropolitan Assembly of the Central region.
The unfortunate incident occurred on Friday after staff from the Electricity Company of Ghana(ECG) reported disconnected power supply.
Residents of Fetteh Kakraba told Adom News that the ECG staff staffs disconnected the light of the deceased but failed to cut off the electrical cables that connect the pole to the meter and left it hanging.
The deceased whose name has been given as Appiawaa upon return to the house attempted to position the cable well to avoid any danger but was electrocuted in the process.
An eyewitness, Sister Esi said Appiawa died after they rushed her to St Gregory Hospital.
They have threatened to beat any ECG officer who will come around to check their meter or make any disconnection in the area again.
