Some customers of the Electricity Company of Ghana would experience a shutdown of prepayment platforms which could result in power cuts this weekend.

According to the ECG, this would affect the customers on the BXC prepayment systems.

This is because the utility provider would be undertaking a “scheduled upgrading of the BXC prepayment system,” an ECG statement said.

To avoid experiencing a power cut, the ECG has advised customers living in the Nungua, Teshie, Bortianor, Nsawam and Ablekuma district to purchase enough prepared power to last them over the weekend.
