Nigeria To Cut Gas Supplies To Ghana Over Debt by olatade(m): 4:16pm On Oct 12, 2015
The power crisis in Ghana is set to worsen in the coming days as Nigeria threatens to cut gas supply to the Aboadze Thermal Plant.

The development has been occasioned by the failure of government to settle its indebtedness to the Nigerian gas authorities.

According to sources within the Power sector, Ghana owes the Nigerian authorities over GHC100million.

Currently, Ghana receives in excess of 140 million standard cubic feet per day of gas from Nigeria. The supply, although not enough, has greatly enhanced power supply in the country over the last few weeks.

Speaking on recent developments in the power sector, a former Chief Executive Officer of the Volta River Authority Dr. Charles Wireku-Brobbey told Accra-based Joy FM that constant power supply in the country is not dependent on the incoming power barges from Turkey.

“The problem for us not the arrival or non-arrival of the power barges. As we speak the government owes Nigeria over GHC100million, which we are yet to settle, and that is the problem that should concern us,” he said.

my guy this is stale news grin grin grin as a matter of fact Ghana has more gas than it needs as we speak grin Ghana is producing 150 MM scf/d from its own Jubilee field. that is more than the 120 MM scf/d Ghana was suposed to get from your pathetic country. most of the time you MUMUs supply just about 50 MM scf/d even though you have a contractural obligation to deliver 120 MM scf/d!

The best news is that power supply is back to normal in Ghana!
