It has emerged that the National Taskforce of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) will soon disconnect power supply to 91 hospitals nationwide due to outstanding debts owed.
The debt owed by the facilities has been pegged at GH₵261 million.
Reports suggest the facilities will be disconnected 48 hours after receiving a “demand notice.”
Notable among the affected facilities are; Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, the 37 Military Hospital, Ridge Hospital in the Greater Accra region, Komfo Anokye and Manhyia Government Hospitals in the Ashanti region, Ho Teaching Hospital in the Volta region, and Kibi Government Hospital in the Eastern region, are among those at risk of disconnection.
The exercise forms part of ECG’s comprehensive effort to mobilise revenue from customers.
Accra Academy, Parliament, Accra Sports Stadium among others were recently affected in the ongoing exercise.
