Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga has called for the management of the Tema Port and the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) to be held responsible for the disappearance of over 1,300 ECG containers filled with essential equipment.
His remarks follow shocking revelations that several coils of stolen ECG cables—part of the missing containers—were discovered at aluminium smelting facilities in Shai-Osudoku, where they had been melted into blocks and processed into aluminium rods for export.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Friday, March 28, Ayariga stressed that those involved must face justice.
“Mr. Speaker, this country must change. I’m happy that the minister [Energy and Green Transition] has promised to go to the root of this matter, and he has the full support of this House to hold all those who were involved in this exercise accountable, from the leadership of ECG to the leadership of the Tema Port.
“And those who specifically stole the containers out of the port should also be held accountable. The companies that, over the years, have been exporting aluminium products—we need to investigate them. Where have they been sourcing their aluminium products?” he asserted.
