President Nana Akufo Addo

The recent irregular power supply that has plagued the nation has been effectively addressed, according to President Nana Akufo Addo.

Speaking to guests at Accra’s yearly May Day celebration, the President expressed hope that the difficulties, dubbed “dumsor,” are now history.

He thanked the populace for their cooperation and patience during the difficult times.

“I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Ghanaians for their patience and understanding during recent temporary challenges with electricity supply across the country.

“Over the period, the issues surrounding transformers and gas supply have been successfully resolved resulting in sufficient improvement in power supply reliability,” the president said.

“Indeed, over the past few days, we have witnessed stable electricity supply across the country with no load-shedding reported anywhere yesterday.”

“For the past seven years we have worked tirelessly to keep the lights on and I am confident that the unfortunate era of dumsor will not return,” he added.
