The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Jinapor, has revealed that 40 out of the over 1,300 missing containers belonging to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) have been traced and confiscated.
He stated that the containers were found in a warehouse owned by an Indian national, who has since been arrested following intelligence gathered by national security operatives.
The minister disclosed this in an interview on TV3 on Thursday, March 27, 2025.
“The briefing I got this morning—and let me commend the National Security Operatives and the law enforcement agencies—the information I got is that already they’ve traced about 40 of them to a particular terminal warehouse in Kpone, which belonged to an Indian man, and they have confiscated all the 40 containers and moved them to a secured location,” he stated.
He added, “There are also reports of some other areas where they are picking intelligence. They will trace and retrieve all of them and fish out the perpetrators before a court of competent jurisdiction,” he added.
“Let me just say that when we start prosecuting these people, let no one say that this is witch-hunting. These are properties of the state, and we will use every legitimate means to ensure that we retrieve them.’’
