A former Director-General of the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA), Richard Anamoo, has stated that it should be possible to trace the missing containers belonging to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), emphasizing that relevant institutions maintain records of their movements.
Anamoo’s comments come amid growing concerns over the disappearance of ECG’s containers, with many calling for an investigation into the circumstances surrounding their status.
In an interview on JoyNews’ The Pulse on Thursday, April 3, Anamoo reassured the public that the missing containers should not be difficult to track, as the GPHA keeps detailed records of all container movements. He explained that whether the containers were transferred to another terminal, stored at an external facility, or auctioned due to overstaying at the port, there would be documentation of these actions.
“What I’m saying is that the containers can be found. If the containers were transferred to another terminal, GPHA would have records,” he said.
Anamoo added that the shipping line would also have records of their movements, and any transactions involving the containers, such as being offloaded inside the port or moved to an external terminal, would be well-documented. He emphasized that as long as the containers remained within the confines of GPHA, there would be corresponding records.
His assurance comes as authorities work to resolve the mystery surrounding the disappearance of the ECG’s containers.
