The company confirmed that Suame and surrounding areas were affected and assured that engineers were working to restore supply.

Similarly, in the Tema Region, a broken pole on Monday, August 25, led to outages in Magna Terris, Ambassador Hotel, and their environs. ECG says its engineers are working to fix the pole and restore supply as soon as possible.

The utility company apologised to customers for the inconvenience caused by both the planned and emergency outages, stressing that the exercises are part of efforts to “improve service delivery.”
