Ghana’s electricity distribution and retail company, Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) disconnected Sakumono Complex Two Primary School from the national grid due to poor electrical wiring of the school .

The school built some 25 years ago was in dire of renovation, re-wiring and painting to make it befitting and convenient for teaching and learning.

The then headmistress of the school, Madam Anne Rita Newton explained to energynewsafrica.com the disconnection had been done about three weeks earlier making visibility in the classrooms very poor.

Bosompem, Presiding Member of the Tema West Assembly, lobbied Africa Diamond Cable Company Limited (Signal Cable) for some retrofitting electrical lighting systems and cables.

The cost of the total equipment is GHc66,590 and to Kwesi Poku Bosompem, the gesture is so laudable and needs commendation.

On behalf of African Diamond Cable Company Limited and CEO, Victor Akowuah, Deputy Manager of the company said the company had done a similar gesture to Tema Technical Institute and looks forward to doing more of such corporate social responsibilities.

He said the company is determined to support education in Ghana, despite being in Ghana less than two years ago

“For us to do more of CSRs, we need Ghanaians to patronise our products which bare the name ‘Signal cable’ to increase our revenues for such gestures.

He said the company would donate a laptop to the best BECE candidate in the Sakumono Electoral Area in 2020, in addition to supplying some set of computers to the schools in the area.
