The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) is contemplating the suspension of power supply to the Parliament on Wednesday, February 21, citing an outstanding debt exceeding GH₵23 million.

This prospective action is aligned with the ongoing “Operation Zero Balance” initiative, aimed at recovering unpaid debts from various customers. The decision to include Parliament in the disconnection targets has raised concerns, given its pivotal role in national governance.

Sources suggest that the accumulated debt poses a substantial challenge to ECG's operations, affecting its capacity to meet the demands of power producers.

This potential move follows a recent disconnection at Accra Academy Senior High School on February 19 2024, where power was severed due to an outstanding debt of GH¢400,000.
