East Legon Resident Arrested For Connecting 2 Big Pipes To GWCL Main Pipe, Denying Whole Area Water

The Sanitation and Water Resources Minister, Cecilia Abena Dapaah, has revealed that a resident of East Legon has been caught for connecting two big pipes to the main pipe of the Ghana Water Company Limited.

This denied other residents water.

Addressing the press in Accra, Mrs Dapaah said “Just yesterday, a resident of East Legon was caught red-handed, he had connected two big pipes s into our mainline and had denied the whole catchment area of water.

“When he was apprehended the pipes were disconnected, immediately water started flowing into people’s homes. But the most serious aspect of this crime is that people whom he had denied water were buying water from him.”
