The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has introduced a system that will reward persons who report those engaged in illegal connections to enable them to enjoy power for free.
Speaking to the ECG Tema Region General Manager, Mr Emmanuel Akinie said that illegal connections are denying the power distribution company valuable revenue.
He says the new system will ensure that a massive revenue mobilisation drive is instituted to minimise the country’s energy sector debt.
According to him, it is wrong to steal power, but what ECG Company have also done is that anybody who will reports somebody engaging in illegal connection will gets something out of the money that they will recover from the illegality.
Emmanuel Akinie warned perpetrators of the crime to stop as the law will soon catch up with them and get them prosecuted for their offences.
