The Chair of the Board at the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), Keli Gadzekpo, has submitted his resignation.

Effective immediately, Gadzekpo's departure is attributed to personal reasons.

Appointed to the Board in 2017 by then Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko, Gadzekpo played a crucial role in ensuring energy sufficiency.

A seasoned entrepreneur, he has played pivotal roles in various companies, notably the Databank Group of Companies, encompassing Databank Asset Management Services and Databank Epack Investment Fund Ltd.

With over two decades of experience in investment banking, Gadzekpo currently serves as the Chair of the Board for Enterprise Group.

Additionally, he heads the Databank Foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of the Databank Group.

Educated at Achimota School, Gadzekpo holds a BSc in Accounting from Brigham Young University and is a CPA from the USA.

He furthered his education as a Mason Fellow at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, earning a master’s degree in Public Administration.

While citing personal reasons in his resignation letter, reports suggest that his departure coincides with recent erratic power supply in the country, prompting calls for the ECG to release a load shedding management schedule.
