The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Abdulai Jinapor, has announced that 40 of the missing Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) containers have been found at a warehouse owned by an Indian national in Kpone, near Tema.
In an interview on Wednesday, March 26, Jinapor praised the efforts of national security and law enforcement agencies in tracking down the missing containers.
“The key issue is finding the whereabouts of these containers. This morning’s briefing confirmed that about 40 of them have been located at a warehouse in Kpone, owned by an Indian national. All 40 containers have been seized and moved to a secure location,” said Jinapor.
The warehouse owner has claimed that the containers were sold to him last year. However, Jinapor emphasized that the matter is under investigation, and law enforcement agencies are committed to ensuring that justice is served.
“This is now under investigation, and the law enforcement agencies will ensure that justice prevails,” he added.
Jinapor also revealed that intelligence reports suggest there are additional missing containers in other locations. He reassured the public that security agencies are actively following up on leads to recover all the missing containers and hold those responsible accountable.
“They have identified other locations and are working to recover all the containers and ensure that those responsible are prosecuted in court,” he stated.
