GWCL halts operation at Guinness Ghana head office over GHS6m debt

On Tuesday, May 9, 2023, the Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) severed water supply to the headquarters of Guinness Ghana Breweries Limited.

It is reported that Guinness Ghana Breweries owes the Ghana Water Company Limited GH6.7 million.

Due to the lack of water supply, the breweries company has been shut down.

The Guinness Ghana Breweries is yet to comment on the matter.

Similar exercises are ongoing nationwide as part of the revenue mobilisation drive to redeem debts owed to GWCL.

According to GWCL, nationally, over 800 million are owed in arrears with 90 percent being domestic consumers and 10 percent government institutions.

Until such time as they pay up their debts in full or in part, as assessed by the company, and a reconnection charge, defaulters have their pipelines disconnected.
