The Electricity Company of Ghana is supporting communities in its Tema Region operational area by providing streetlights to aid visibility at night.
The project is a forms part of ECG’s corporate social responsibility project as a means of supporting the various communities.
The Tema Region ECG is doing this project in close association with the various Assembly Members in the communities.
Ms. Sakyiwaa Mensah, the ECG Tema Region PRO indicated that “this project is on streetlights and not on pole replacements. In that, if there happens to be a weak pole, a streetlight will not be mounted on it and that pole will be replaced soon”.
Ms. Mensah thanked the Assembly Members and community members for their support of the project.
“Some have provided open spaces for the teams to assemble the lights before fixing. Some have also provided them with water voluntarily and for this we appreciate”, she added.
Ms. Mensah made these comments on Tema-based Plan ‘B’ FM.
The project started in Tema Region in October 2024.
Some communities such as those under its Tema South District have started have their streetlights fixed.
Other communities will have theirs fixed as scheduled by the power distributor.
