Some parts of the country especially the capital, Greater Accra, were hit with a power outage, popularly known as dumsor.
The Saturday evening power cut was not only in Accra but also experienced in the Central Region, Northern Region, Eastern Region, Upper East Region, Upper West Region, Volta Region and Oti Region.
In many parts of the capital, the unannounced dumsor happened around 21.00 GMT.
It is, however, unclear what might have triggered the latest dumsor, but some reports indicate that there was some operational challenges encountered by the Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo).
When GhanaWeb posed a question on its Facebook Timeline, many Ghanaians across the country complained about the situation.
Below are some of the reactions.
