ECG Disconnects Accra Sports Stadium Lights

Information reaching Asempa Sports indicates that power to the Accra Sports Stadium has been disconnected.

This has resulted in darkness in the nation’s sports infrastructure. The condition has worsened for the past days with sources indicating that the National Sp

orts Authority (NSA) is owing the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) since January 2015. On Tuesday, workers at the facility experienced their worst fears as the NSA executives had to use a generator to power lights during their board meeting.

In 2013, the government gave a directive that all government agencies should pay their own utility bills but the NSA has since had difficulties in settling their bills. The fixed price for each month was stated to be GHc24,000 after negotiations. The NSA now owes the ECG GHC 463,000, Asempa Sports gathered.
