Alexander Afenyo-Markin wants the power company to fix major money problems. The opposition leader said ECG loses cash because most people avoid paying electric bills. Only three out of ten customers pay what they owe for power. Many homes have no meters or steal electricity through illegal hookups. This crisis threatens the entire power system.
Afenyo-Markin served as ECG board chairman and saw the bad numbers firsthand. He warned that future leaders will face the same mess unless reforms happen fast. The politician pushed for the Loss Reduction Programme to continue under any government. Political parties must work together on energy issues instead of fighting. Structural changes need to start immediately.
A video online showed Afenyo-Markin talking about energy cooperation between parties. People wrongly claimed he supported the fuel tax that adds money to gas prices. The lawmaker denied backing the dumsor levy and called the claims false. He said social media twisted his Friday parliament speech completely. His real message focused on fixing ECG problems through teamwork.
