Management of the Accra West Region of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) and the Greater Accra Regional Police Command have pledged to deepen their existing collaboration.
The commitment was made during a familiarisation visit to introduce the new General Manager of the Accra West Region, Ing. Ebenezer Ghunney to the Police Command.
Welcoming the team, the Greater Accra Regional Police Commander, DCOP Afful Boakye-Yiadom, recounted the healthy relationship that exists between the ECG and the Police.
He noted that the Police often treat requests for support from the ECG as high priority.
“Across the country, the police accompany staff of the ECG on various official assignments including arresting persons engaged in illegal connections and those who steal the Company’s property,” he said.
He added that “as institutions that offer public services, we need to be supportive to each other.”
