Out of a total of GHȼ13 million owned by Parliament, the house has committed to the payment of GHȼ8.5 million to prevent disconnection, after an initial offer of one million cedis was rejected by the ECG. According to the Manager, External Communications of the ECG, Laila Abubakari, “GHȼ5 million of the GHȼ8.5 million they promised will be paid by the Finance Ministry through the GIFMIS platform. They have written us a check for the rest GHȼ3.5 million but we asked them to process it electronically because we are not accepting cheques or cash in this exercise.”
