The Koforidua Multipurpose Youth Resource Center has had its electricity cut off by the Electricity Company of Ghana due to a significant unpaid debt.
GhOne TV reports that the center owes GH¢30,000, a debt that has remained unsettled for an extended period.
ECG officials decided to disconnect the power after repeated failures by the center’s management to address the outstanding balance.
Since its inauguration by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in 2023, the facility has been the venue for various significant events, including sports activities.
“ECG has cut power to the Koforidua Multipurpose Youth Resource Center due to GH¢30,000+ outstanding debt,” GhOne TV shared on X.
The 67th Independence Day parade took place at the Koforidua Resource Centre, drawing national attention to the Eastern Region.
The management of the centre has yet to comment on the actions taken by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) and their plans to promptly restore electricity to the facility.
Concerns have been raised about the neglected condition of several sports complexes across the country.
In response, the Ministry of Youth and Sports has pledged to tackle these issues diligently.
