Electricity supply to the Parliament House and Job 600, the office complex for Members of Parliament, has been disconnected due to a GH¢23 million debt.
The disconnection was carried out by the National Taskforce on Thursday, February 29, as part of the “Operation Zero Balance” initiative by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) task force, aimed at recovering overdue debts from various customers.
But efforts to get full payment provided futile leading to the disconnection.
