June 19, 2024The Board Chairman of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), Mr Keli Gadzekpo, has resigned from his position.
According to Accra-based Asaase Radio owned by a cousin of the Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo, the ECG chair tendered his resignation letter to the office of the President on Tuesday, March 2024.
Keli cited personal reasons for his decision to resign, the report said.
This portal understands that officials of ECG met the Minister for Energy, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, at the Ministry on Tuesday morning to discuss the recent power outages and other pertinent issues.
It is believed that Mr Gadzekpo sent his resignation letter to the President after the meeting.
Keli Gadzekpo was appointed Board Chairman of ECG in 2017.
He currently serves as the Board Chairman for Enterprise Group PLC.
A few days ago, this portal picked pieces of information from the industry that the ECG Board chair or MD was likely to leave office.
It was not clear whether it was the President who was going to relieve one of them or one of them was going to exit by himself.
Mr Keli Gadzekpo’s exit does not come as a surprise to this portal given the fact that it picked the hint a few days ago.
The ECG which is a power distribution company responsible for power supply in southern Ghana has come under criticism for refusing to publish a load-shedding timetable to guide electricity consumers.
Power supply in the West African nation has been erratic since last year.
Recent calls by a section of Ghanaians for a load-shedding timetable irked the sector Minister Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh and called those making such demands as wishing evil for their country.
