The Energy Minister, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempreh, has maintained that Ghana is not experiencing ‘dumsor’ as perceived by critics of the government.
The Minister asserted that the ‘dumsor’ only happened under former President John Dramani Mahama.
He said what we are witnessing under the Nana Addo led adminsitration is ‘dum siesie’.
He said this when he appeared before the Government Assurances Committee meeting in Accra on Friday, May 3, 2924.
“…I told you that when I got to the Ministry we’ve gone past the era where we had 72 to 96 days of lights out and six hours of lights on. We are in the era of ‘dum siesie’ which is profoundly different from dumsor.”
“Dumsor as inflicted on Ghanaians has only happened as characterised his excellency John Dramani Mahama’s governance. He is the only president on record that for four years that he reigned, for four years that he ruled, for four years that he governed, there was ‘dum dum dum.’ If the non-partisan colleague says that now it is worse, then I don’t know where his realities lie,” he said.
In a rebuttal, the Ranking Member on the Government Assurances Committee of Parliament, Oti Bless posited that the former President resolved the crisis because he took responsibility for it.
