A Nigerian national living in Ghana has expressed shock after the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) promptly replaced a blown community transformer without demanding any payment from residents.
The man could be heard praising the efficiency of the Ghanaian power utility, noting how quickly the replacement was carried out. He specifically highlighted that no money was collected from citizens before the new transformer was installed — a situation he appeared to contrast with experiences in Nigeria.
The video has sparked mixed reactions online, with many Ghanaians expressing pride in the service while others pointed out ongoing power challenges in parts of the country. Some commenters urged Nigerian leaders to take note of the development.
The Electricity Company of Ghana is responsible for power distribution across the country. While residents frequently complain about outages and delays in fault repairs, this particular incident has been highlighted as a positive example of responsive service delivery.
This story comes amid broader discussions about public service efficiency and infrastructure management in Ghana and the West African sub-region.
