A prominent member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, has expressed suspicion regarding the nationwide erratic power supply, known locally as 'dumsor'.

He questioned why the government was able to provide stable electricity to Ghanaians for the past seven years, only for unstable power supply to emerge just months before the general elections.

In a Facebook post, Mr. Otchere-Darko remarked, “There is something mysteriously amiss somewhere. You have managed to keep the lights on for 7 years, even during the height of the economic crisis in 2022. Why now? Still scratching my head…”

Ghana is currently facing challenges in its energy sector, with frequent power outages affecting various parts of the country.

Despite this, the government has maintained that Ghanaians do not need a timetable to help them plan their daily activities.
