President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has taken a jibe at former President John Dramani Mahama for the erratic power crisis, commonly known as dumsor, that occurred during his administration.
Speaking at the commissioning of the Accra Central Bulk Supply Point, President Akufo-Addo assured Ghanaians that under his stewardship, the country would not experience the dark days of power crisis.
“I want to reassure all of you that my government will continue to work to always keeping the lights on despite the global dynamics of the energy pricing because the alternative is not an option because we are not going back to dumsor and we leave that to President Mahama. I’m convinced and confident that our nation is on the right path despite our challenges. And with God on our side, I have the firm believe that we will succeed in this enterprise,” President Akufo-Addo said.
The President emphasized his government’s commitment to ensuring that the lights stay on in Ghana despite the fluctuations of global energy prices.
