ECG intends to boycott Ashanti Regional Minister due to the arrest of General Manager

ECG

Employees of the Ashanti Regional branch of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) have declared their intention to raise red flags in their offices nationwide starting today.

This action aims to urge an apology from the Regional Minister in response to allegations that he was involved in the arrest of their General Manager, Ing. Mark Wiafe Asumani, following a power outage at the Kumasi Technical University. Mr. Asumani was subsequently released on self-recognizance bail.

In an interview, Bismark Adomah, the National Vice Chairman of the Senior Staff Association for ECG, stated that all meetings with the Ashanti regional minister will be boycotted unless he apologizes.

Adomah said, “Everyone in ECG is wearing red and hoisting the red flag. And secondly, we have also instructed our four general managers not to attend any meeting called by the regional minister.

He continued, “The invitation of the letter will let us know whether he is calling to apologise and if the invitation doesn’t state that, we will not attend the meeting. Yesterday, the NEC met and took the decision which has been communicated to all our members throughout the country.”
