Two elevators in the State Tower Block, popularly known as Job 600, are not functioning.
This is as a result of water that seeped into the motors of the equipment during the last couple of rains and in the process, affected the traction of the cables and counterweight systems of the elevators.
The roof of the 252-room office complex, Kasapafmonline.com understands leaks anytime it rains.
The situation, this website is told, has brought more pressure on the remaining four elevators in the building.
That aside, security scanners installed at the entry point of the Block have also broken down.
Visitors are now subjected to physical body checks before being granted access to the facility.
The scanners and elevators, according to inside sources, broke down two weeks after the facility was inaugurated by President John Dramani Mahama on November 7, 2015.
The State property was refurbished by the China State Hualong Construction Company Limited.
It has 252 offices for Members of Parliament and also boasts of a three hundred seater auditorium, a gym, restaurant, a clinic, a mosque, a fire station, VIP common room, video conferencing room and banks.
