The Board Chairman of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) and Majority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, is advocating for immediate reforms within the company to enhance its operations.
His call for change comes in light of the recent appointment of an acting Managing Director.
Speaking to the media, Mr Afenyo-Markin expressed his confidence in ECG’s potential for improvement.
He emphasised that with effective management and proper communication with external stakeholders, the company can achieve significant progress and operational gains.
Addressing criticisms regarding ECG's poor performance over the years, Afenyo-Markin acknowledged that there is still much work to be done.
He stressed the importance of a collaborative approach, stating that achieving the desired improvements will require the involvement of all parties.
“I accept the fact that we must put our shoulders to the wheel for reforms. I mean, from outside and coming in, I think that ECG can be very efficient if we subject ourselves to reforms. And reform would involve engaging all stakeholders internally and communicating these to the external stakeholders. So it is an all-inclusive matter, and I don’t want this blame game approach that we are blaming the public and the public is also blaming us.”
