THE Executive Director of the Institute of Energy Security (IES),Nana Amoasi V|| has indicated that President Akufo-Addo’s claims that the country’s intermittent power supply issue has been resolved is entirely misleading.
During the annual May Day celebration in Accra, the President Akuffo Addo categorically stated that the erratic power supply situation in the country, commonly referred to as “dumsor,” would be no more under his watch.
In an interview on Citi FM’s Eyewitness News, Nana Amoasi VII debunked president Akuffo Addo's claims thus cautioning that his prouncement is not in line with the true reflection of the situation.
He mentioned several areas such as Weija, Ekumfi, Mankessim, Nungua, and Tema Community 2 and 25, experienced power outages between Tuesday and Wednesday as well as some deficits in the power supply system.
He reiterated that the Akuffo Addo's statements should be a true reflection of the reality on grounds, and not just information from his advisors.
He indicated that president Akuffo Addo's handlers may not be feeding him with an accurate information of the ongoing power outages in the country.
He urged Akuffo Addo to be very circumspect and measured in his speech, as they could probably spark public controversy about the true state of the country’s power Crisis.
“The first thing that we picked from the president’s statement is that today he is admitting that under his tenure, there has been dumsor. And so he made it clear in his statement that the load shedding that we are seeing is probably normaI.
"To say that the issues have been dealt with is misleading and we pray that the handlers of the president will rather lead him than mislead him. Sometimes the president looks awful in the eyes of industry players, the watchers and even consumers.”
“I am sure any pronouncement that he made is contingent on what they tell him but he must be very careful because the handlers are not putting out what the issues are.
"The value is the same. We’ve just seen a bit of change last night but if the president says that yesterday we didn’t experience dumsor anywhere around the country, that is untrue. I can recount some few places we have checked,” he stressed.
