Former President John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has expressed deep dismay over the reported loss of $190 million earmarked for private sector involvement in electricity distribution under the US Millennium Compact. Apexnewsgh reports
He attributed this loss to the “corrupt, ‘yenkyendi’, and cronyistic governance practices” of the Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia administration.
Mahama stressed the gravity of the situation, labeling it as “unacceptable” and emphasizing that Ghanaians deserve better. He pledged that if elected President in January 2025, his administration would prioritize enhancing private sector efficiency within the electricity distribution system, focusing on areas such as metering, revenue management, and fault response.
Furthermore, Mahama committed to ensuring accountability by promising a thorough investigation into the PDS scandal, aiming to hold all involved parties accountable for their actions. Encouraging unity and collaboration, the former President called on Ghanaians to work together towards a brighter future for the nation’s power sector, one that benefits both citizens and businesses alike.
Mahama’s statement highlights the need for transparency and accountability in governance, and his commitment to prioritizing the nation’s interests over political considerations.
As the 2024 elections approach, his message of change and accountability is likely to resonate with many Ghanaians eager for a better future for their country.
