This is contrary to assertions that recent power outages are due to the government’s inability to procure fuel for power generators to produce electricity for consumption.

The country has been experiencing widespread power cuts for about a week now with intermittent power outages almost every other night.

Earlier this week, the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) blamed the blackouts on a performance test on a new regulating and metering gas station in Tema.

Member of Parliament for the Bongo Constituency and a former Head of Communications at the Energy Ministry, Edward Bawa who made the claim argued that the country’s energy sector is confronted with severe financial challenges coupled with unprecedented net arrears of about US$4 billion and indebtedness of US$1.5 billion owed private power producers.

Energy Minister John Peter Amewu denied any financial challenges in his sector and rather assured that Dumsor is a thing of the past.
