Energy Minister Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh has defended the energy sector under the leadership of President Nana Akufo-Addo, stating that it is far better than the previous administration led by John Mahama, despite the prevailing power crisis.

In recent weeks, numerous regions across the country, particularly in Greater Accra, have been grappling with power outages, eliciting frustration among citizens towards the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG).

The erratic power supply has disrupted daily routines for both businesses and individuals.

Amidst growing calls for ECG to implement a structured load-shedding schedule to facilitate daily planning, the utility company has maintained that there is no official “dumsor” and has refuted the necessity for a timetable.
