Prince Gyimah has pleaded guilty to the offence of stealing power from the Cantonment residence of
the President and has been fined Gh¢902. He has also signed a bond to be of good behaviour.

The Circuit Court judge Worlanyo Kotoku also slapped a fine of Gh¢200 on him as damages to state power distributor – the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG.)

According to Starr News’ Osei Owusu Amankwaah, who was in court Saturday, Gyimah was part of 27 people who have been sued by the ECG for tampering with power connections.
