Load-shedding time table: Ask those calling for it to bring it – Energy Minister

The Energy Minister, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has stated that the country is not facing ‘dumsor’ (erratic power supply), indicating that individuals calling for a load-shedding timetable should release it themselves.

He said the current power situation is “300 times better” than what was experienced under former President John Mahama in 2015.
“If you are comparing four years, four years, NPP administration is 300 times better than John Mahama”, he stated.
He admitted an erratic power supply, saying, “Nobody has said we haven’t [experienced dumsor]; I am just saying it is far much better than John Mahama ever did”.

But the energy minister disagrees. He said, “Ask those who want it [load-shedding timetable] to bring it”, adding that “I haven’t seen any timetable today. The ECG said that there is no timetable coming up.”

The minister therefore questioned the motive of persons demanding a load-shedding timetable.
“Why do you want to bring a timetable? For what purpose? Why would somebody get up and wish evil or bad for the country?” he asked the reporters.
