The Ministry of Energy and Green Transition has denied claims that erratic power supply, popularly known as ”dumsor,” was back.
Public Relations Officer for the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition, Isaac Agyei Kwakye, who denied this, clarified that the recent outages being experienced are due to isolated issues such as faulty cables rather than generation problems.
Speaking in an interview with Citi FM, he stated that the issues, such as the faulty cables, were being addressed, adding that these isolated problems shouldn’t be misconstrued as a generation-related crisis.
“There is no ‘dumsor’. There is nothing like ‘dumsor’ and ‘dumsor’ is not back. There have been isolated cases. I stay in Accra at Madina, and I can tell you that I don’t remember the last time I slept in the dark. What it means is that the cables there are not faulty.
“If the cable is faulty, then certainly it has to be worked on. Recently, at Coco Beach, there was a problem. Parts of Nungua were off. Others were in the light, which tells you that there is nothing like dumsor. There is a problem that has to be fixed, which has nothing to do with generation. You can’t term that as dumsor,” he added.
