Free SHS Secretariat forwards GH¢5m to schools for electricity bills.

The Free Senior High School (SHS) Secretariat is forwarding GH¢5 million to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) to defray part of the indebtedness of second-cycle schools.

The move is to prevent the ECG from taking further action against schools that are owing. For a permanent solution, the secretariat has scheduled a meeting with the ECG to look at the total indebtedness of SHSs in areas the ECG covers.
The Director of Communication of the ECG, William Boateng, made this known to the Daily Graphic in Accra yesterday.
