Do illegal Connections If ECG Hitches Continue – A Plus Tells Ghanaians


Controversial media personality and political activist Kwame A Plus has advised Ghanaians to do illegal connections if the challenges with purchasing prepaid continue.

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has been having technical hitches for over a week preventing customers from purchasing prepaid.

In a video shared on his Instagram page sighted by Ghbase.com, A Plus lamented the side effects of the absence of electricity on individuals and other institutions., He stated that a lot of people running cold stores are running at a loss due to the inability to buy prepaid for their businesses.

“Have you gotten some of the prepaid to buy? ECG is on my lane here. There are a lot of people who have thronged the place wanting the prepaid credits. A poor person has gone to buy a pound of meat to refrigerate.”

“The person sells kenkey so she has bought the meat and fish to refrigerate and fry and use it to sell their kenkey. For about one week, the person does not get to buy prepaid and the meat goes bad.

“These days medicines including Covid drugs are frozen. All these people want to buy the prepaid but it is unavailable. Others have machines that have to be plugged in when their sickness becomes extreme otherwise the person will die but the light is unavailable.

“If you go to advanced countries, the light does not even go off. Over here, even when you are holding money to buy you won’t get some. What is even more annoying is that after uploading, what you get to buy, there’s a light off. What is this?” he quizzed.

“If you have tried purchasing prepaid for a week now and you are not getting it, don’t bother yourself. Your meat will go bad. Just look for an electrician to do an illegal connection for you.”

“My prepaid is not finished. When it does, I will try looking for some over a certain period. If I don’t get it and I look in my freezer and things are not going okay, I will do an illegal connection.

“We should test the law. No judge is mad. They are sensible … Do illegal connections. Explain to the judge with evidence that you have tried purchasing prepaid to no avail. Nobody can do anything to you when you are arrested. They’ll only take you to court in this democratic dispensation,” he opined.
