Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson has taken to social media to criticize the government for the recent intermittent power outages experienced across the country.
In a tweet on Tuesday, the actress called on President Akufo-Addo’s government to find a lasting solution to the ongoing issue.
Yvonne Nelson, known for her activism in the past, had previously led a demonstration against the John Mahama government in 2015 over power outages.
Alongside other celebrities, such as Van Vicker, Prince David Osei, and DKB, she demanded a solution to the problem at that time.
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has warned Ghanaians to expect more power outages during peak demand hours between 7 p.m. and 11 p.m. According to the ECG, 630 distribution transformers in various communities are currently operating above capacity due to increased power consumption, leading to blown fuses and broken conductors.
Despite the challenges, the ECG assured customers that transformer upgrading and new projects are underway to improve the power supply reliability. The company urged affected customers to remain patient and supportive during this period.
