A man’s intuition saved the day after he took a generator to a hospital where his wife was giving birth and there was a power outage.
The incident reportedly occurred at the Somanya Polyclinic in the Lower Manya and Yilo Krobo on Wednesday, 17th of August, 2022. The man’s wife was in the labour room when the power went off.
Instantly he dashed home and brought his generator to power the hospital. Recall that some areas in the district have been plunged into darkness after the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) cut them off from the national grid.
In furtherance, some residents clashed with the military recently after resisting the installation of ECG meters.
The residents claim that a team from the power company with military personnel stormed their houses to install prepaid meters and subjected them to severe beatings.
Their crime, according to them was their refusal to accept the prepaid meters.
They claim that the assault has led to injuries on their bodies as they have been left with deep wounds.
This development has deepened the protracted feud between the residents and ECG which culminated in ECG’s decision to cut them off from the power grid and plunge them into darkness.
