Power cut to Ghana’s parliament over $1.8m debt
It has been reported that the electricity supply to Ghana’s parliament has been cut off due to an outstanding debt of $1.8 million. The power utility company responsible for providing electricity to the parliament building took this drastic measure after numerous failed attempts to recover the debt.
The power cut has left members of parliament scrambling to find alternative sources of power to continue their work. This incident highlights the financial challenges faced by the government of Ghana and the importance of timely payment of bills to avoid disruptions in essential services.
Parliament officials have assured the public that efforts are being made to resolve the issue and restore electricity to the building as soon as possible. In the meantime, lawmakers are urged to find temporary solutions to keep the legislative process running smoothly.
