Those are the kind of people who blame the government most. They always sabotage the system by these nefarious acts e.g littering the streets and public places and all sort of nonsense to make it appear as if the government is not working. GOD is seeing them.

while I congratulate the ECG for this achievement so far, I am wondering why they have gone public now, rather than completing the exercise before coming public. There may be those who, sensing the danger of being apprehended could pass power through the meters and the escape arrest. they would then go back to get power bypassing the meters. Ghanaians are really smart when it comes to cheating

Find them and give them fair trials.

Okudzeto Ablakwa, Harruna Iddrissu, Omane Boama, Hannah Bissiw etc all joined politics from school but now displaying opulence.Where did they get the money from since we know their salaries alone can't support their current opulent lifestyles

I think Ghanaians are being bullied for not knowing their rights. A whole ECG defrauded the populace with criminal meters and robbed us at gun point and challenged later agreed the meters were wrong, did ECG pay back that robbery money to the populace? Was any ECG director or worker arrested? Where is that defrauded money? Go to hell ECG!!!

We are doing our best to be honest citizens and have made a tremendous progress in cleaning our mess. Ashaiman is no longer the preferred destination of crooks and saboteurs so we deserve a praise.

It is scandalous not to be charging thieves punitive damages as well. What incentive is there for others not to take the risk in the hope that they will never be caught and if caught they will receive a slap on the wrist. Or is it because some of these culprits are "BIG SHOTS" AND ecg IS COVERING THEM UP?
