President appoints Alexander Afenyo-Markin as new ECG board chairman

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has named Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, the Majority Leader and Member of Parliament for Effutu, as the new Board Chairman of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG).

This is the third appointment to this position within the past six months, following the resignations of Keli Gadzekpo and Herbert Krapa.

The announcement came through a letter signed by the President’s Secretary, Ambassador Nana Asante Bediatuo.

In March, Keli Gadzekpo stepped down from his role as ECG board chair for personal reasons.

He was succeeded by Herbert Krapa, the deputy energy minister, who was later promoted to Minister of State at the Energy Ministry.
