VIDEO: Suspected stolen ECG cables found in Gomoa Awombrew; driver arrested

A truck transporting cables suspected to be part of the missing Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) items has been intercepted at Gomoa Awombrew in the Gomoa Central constituency of the Central Region.

Member of Parliament (MP) Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, disclosed this in a post on Facebook.

According to him, the truck broke down in the community, and residents, who were suspicious of its content, quickly alerted the Swedru Divisional Police Command.

The police, with the help of ECG officials, inspected the cargo, and the driver was unable to provide clear details about the goods’ origin or destination, while the waybill was also suspicious.

ECG officials, after a thorough check, confirmed the cables matched their missing stock, leading to the arrest of the driver and his assistant.

Other people believed to be involved have also been taken into police custody while investigations continue.

A Plus, who expressed confidence in the security agencies, noted that the police have called on National Security to assist in the inquiry.
