The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has alleged that the management of the popular event venue, Fantasy Dome, has been involved in unauthorized meter connections.
ECG claims that Fantasy Dome has been bypassing its meter and illegally connecting to the public power network.
In a notice dated Wednesday, March 20, 2024, ECG has instructed the management of Fantasy Dome to rectify their power service connection within 48 hours of receiving the notice.
The notice cautioned that failure to comply may lead to the ECG initiating legal action, including criminal proceedings, against Fantasy Dome at its discretion.
“You are requested, in your own interest, to report within 48 hours from the date of this notice to (CSD) REVENUE PROTECTION NATIONAL TASKFORCE at ECG PROJECT OFFICE BEHIND THE VIP TRANSPORT YARD (CIRCLE), preferably between the hours of 8.00 AM and 5.00 PM to regularize your power service connection. You may bring along any relevant ECG document. ECG reserves the right to institute criminal proceedings against you at its own convenience.”
During the weekend, the demolition of Fantasy Dome took place, causing controversy.
Leslie Quaynor, the Chief Executive Officer of Fantasy Dome, claimed in an interview with Sammy Flex that the Ghana Trade Fair Company, aided by certain National Security operatives, conducted the demolition.
