ASHANTI ECG MANAGER NOT FIRED.

02.06.2012 LISTEN
By MINISTRY OF INFORMATION

Government has denied news reports indicating that the President has fired the Ashanti Regional Manager of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) in the wake of difficulties with the flood lights at the Kumasi Stadium last night.

The President has given no such directive and it is therefore not true that the ECG boss in the Ashanti region has been fired.

Instead, government has directed an investigation to establish the cause of the failure of the flood lights in order for the appropriate corrective measures to be instituted against a recurrence in the future.

Meanwhile, government sincerely congratulates the Black Stars for their outstanding performance and the massive goal harvest scored against Lesotho last night. The team will continue to enjoy the support of the government to enable the nation qualify for the next world cup tournament.
