The Minority in Parliament has vowed to assist investigations into the disappearance of over 1,300 Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) containers at Tema Harbour.
Former Deputy Energy Minister Collins Adomako Mensah, speaking on Joy FMon March 25, expressed shock at the missing containers and reaffirmed the Minority’s commitment to accountability. As Deputy Ranking Member on the Energy Committee, he assured full cooperation to identify those responsible.
The issue surfaced after Energy Minister John Abdulai Jinapor raised concerns over procurement breaches spanning several years. An investigative committee has since been tasked with uncovering the extent of the problem.
Adomako Mensah denied prior knowledge of the matter during his tenure, noting that ECG follows structured approval processes. He emphasized the need for a thorough probe to restore order and prevent future procurement irregularities within the energy sector.
