Outspoken Ghanaian preacher, Prophet Kofi Oduro, has lashed out at the government and leaders of Ghana after he experienced an unplanned power outage while preaching in his church.

According to the founder of the Alabaster International Ministries, it is a shame for the country to be experiencing persistent power outages sixty-seven years after independence.

He mentioned that in jurisdictions where systems work, issues like power outages and shortage of water supply almost never happen, and when they do, there is prior notice from those governments to their citizens.

He made an example, for instance, of when he lived in London and what the experience was like.

Prophet Oduro narrated, “My brother just came from Holland, ask if he remembers when last they experienced power outage while their president or prime minister was giving a speech? Tell me that you experience power outage over there.

“I stayed overseas for four years. I stayed in London, and over there when the government intended to cut our supply of water to allow for maintenance work to be done, we were given formal notice three weeks to the day, we were reminded two weeks to the day, a week to the day and even the week of the day, we were notified. This was for just a 30mins maintenance work.”

He added that unfortunately in Ghana, there are leaders and people defending the nation’s failing systems.

He said, “The country is 67 years, yet our lights are turned off regularly. And you will see a minister boldly defending dumsor. It is sad, yet we do not acknowledge it.

"However, the truth is we shall all account for our deeds and be paid accordingly.”
