Energy Minister Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh has dispelled suggestions of a return to the days of constant power outages, also know as ‘dumsor’, following erratic power supply in the last few days.
After last Sunday’s nationwide blackout, the Ghana Grid Company Limited, (GridCo) explained it was due to a challenge in the power system.
Government has since come under intense criticism with several power consumers expressing outrage over the situation, especially with a few reports of similar episodes in parts of Accra on Monday.
A former Director of Public Affairs at the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC), Nana Yaa Jantuah, wants government to come clean on the country’s current power situation.
