4 policemen arrested for stealing items from Osagyefo Barge

Four police officials have been arrested for stealing items from the Osagyefo Power Barge in the Western region.

Kasapafmonline.com reports that items stolen from the barge, which is located at Efassu, near Half-Assini, included cables and fridges. The police commander for the area, DSP Zengey MacCarthy, who confirmed the interdiction, said the policemen had been assigned to protect the barge.

As sighted on Yen.com, two officers, L/Cp Peter Zator and L/Cp Ibrahim Mohammed who were arrested in February 2019, named two other officers who they claim were involved in the theft.

The Osagyefo Barge is a 125 MW barge-mounted gas turbine electric power-generating station located at Effasu in the Western Region of Ghana.

The 77m long barge is equipped with a pair of single-cycle heavy-duty gas turbine units built by Ansaldo that have a combined generating capacity of 125 MW.

It is designed to burn either natural gas or diesel fuel.
