A smart move
Very good move because you are selling your water to other bottling companies who are making huge profits by just refilling into bottles and sachets. It is high time Ghana Water charges a high tariff specifically to these bot ...

Leave the subsidiary business claim. Allow the privaze sector space to operate. There's a belief that these subsidiaroes are nothing but fronts for the powerful and politically connected
This is interesting. I hope it brings the price down and better quality
Maybe it will even increase, if you know you know!
And some of us don't get water flowing in our pipes. We have been buying from water tankers for more than a year now. Ooh Ghana!!! Hmmm
Good move
This is completely unethical !!! Ghana water has an obligation to supply clean wholesome portable water. If it was doing that there would be no market for satchet water !!! They are going to be profiting from their own lack ...

People will come and insult you oooh
What is unethical about a water company using different supply methods? Do you carry your water pipes with you when you move around chasing money and need water?
I can't believe you missed the whole point
For real for real
They can't supply part of Accra with water but they want to do sachet water business. We know by the end of the year, we will have another company making losses.

GWSC is already performing very poorly in its core mandate. Government should therefore stop the formation of these drainpipe subsidiaries. They only serve the good of management, board and corrupt politicians.
Write your comment; Head of ghana water, uar a big Shame, resign now with your useless thinkless mind. who discuss this with you as 24hr job. u cant bath your self ,how can you bath your children. rubbish minded.
A clear example of conflict of interest. NDC has no shame and zero scruples.
Good move, l hope it will bring sanity into the system. Some of these companies operate under unhygienic conditions. Especially the one man businesses. Their prices are also high. U can find some sachet water on the floor of ...

Bad move.Expect to hear issues of nepotism,corruption,embezellment etc.
To sanitise system,government just needs to enforce better ...but we know how things are broken in Ghana
What is your point

So now these incompetent baffons will start selling our water back to us, when they can't even get it to run through our taps. *ucking *unts.

If that will be ths case
Even if h put it bottles or sachets which I dont ne ...

Where is GWCL going to get the warer to bag or bottle to sell? Areas of Tema, notably Gbetsile have been virtually without water since December. As insensitive and shameless as they are, GWCL continue to send regular bills, w ...

It's morally incorrect.
Corruption at its best.
You should have been in charge of gold board. Your brother will reshuffle u soon. Pray harder. Ebore wotar. God dey. Selling Gold not water.
If you appoint dumb mediocre people with no vision, you get such visionless projects. NDC is a joke and anyone who still believes this shit party has anything better to offer must be sick in the head.
We were in this country when a minister for Agriculture was selling plantains at the ministry. What bad about Ghana water selling bottle water and sachets water, good move. Jobs will be created
They should invest their efforts in plugging revenue leakage via new technologies, smart procurement that delivers value for money, and investing in back up systems taking a lesson from the VRA/Gridco challenge when we lost 1 ...

Huge conflict of interest. It's like ECG selling TVs or GES selling private teachers.
The Lake Volta has been there since 1964 when the Akosombo Dam was created. It covers 8 500 sq.m.and is the 3rd.largest artificial water resevoir. One would expect GWCL to have devoted some attention to this source of water. ...

Hahahaha. They will make losses even if customers agree to buy one sachet water at 200 Ghana cedis. Mark my words
Sachet water should be banned or should be refunded
It's like ECG also selling generators because of their inability to keep the lights on.
Master you don't have enough water for domestic consumption how can you go into the production of bottle and satchet water. In the Tema Metropolis water is supplied on shift. Sundays to Wednesdays then off from Thursday to Sa ...
