Former Deputy Minister for Energy, Collins Adomako Mensah, has called for an immediate investigation into the disappearance.
Mensah expressed his shock at the situation, agreeing with his colleague, John Jinapor, that such incidents are rare and highly concerning. As the Minority Deputy Ranking on the Energy Committee, Mensah assured that the Minority would fully cooperate to ensure accountability and bring the responsible parties to justice.
An investigative report on ECG uncovered that the missing containers were meant to be cleared at the Tema Port. Initially, ECG claimed to have 2,491 uncleared containers filled with cables and other essential equipment. However, an independent audit at the port found only 1,134 containers, leaving 1,347 missing.
The chairman of the investigative committee, Prof. Innocent Senyo Acquah, revealed the findings on the Good Morning Ghana show on Accra-based Metro TV. Mensah stressed the need for a thorough investigation, emphasizing the structured approval processes at ECG that make this loss particularly troubling.
“The investigation is crucial to restore order and transparency within the company’s operations,” Mensah said. The disappearance of the containers has raised concerns about accountability and transparency within ECG, and the investigation aims to uncover the truth behind the missing containers.
