If oranges are offered for sale, buy the one you can afford. Nobody is forcing us to use power. Let's be prudent in the way we use power. Period.

Otherwise if your an Industrial customer in usa you switch providers..In Usa say Alabama you could buy power from ALabama Power, The City of Birmingham or if in area a co-op..When Malls and factorys are built in usa they decide who will supply them even over same line..Now that the gas industry has been deregulated..Gas is beening delievered over the old companys lines but you have marketers doing sales and old company just maintaining the lines! So prices can vary

What is GMA doing in this area; is this their field too? Is this the first time utility tariffs have been increased? Where has the Ghana Medical Association been all this while till now? GMA is now out competing with the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) for positions in the NPP. I wish them well

POPPYCOCK! ARE THEY NOT LIVING IN GHANA? EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT CITIZENZ OF GHANA, THEY NONTHELESS HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK THEIR MIND SINCE THE TARRIFF INCREMENTS AFFECT EVERYBODY.
YOU GUYS CANNOT SEE THINGS BEYOUND POLITICS. EVERYTHING MUST BE GOOD BECAUSE IT`S BEING ESPOUSED BY YOUR PARTY AND, EVERYTHING MUST BE BAD BECAUSE IS BEING ESPOUSED BY YOUR POLITICAL OPPONENTS AND, THIS IDIOCYNCRACY IS FOUND IN BOTH NPP AND NDC.
HOW CAN YOU DEVELOP WITH THESE ENVY AND BACKWARD THINKING?

why this insensivity towards the people who voted you? Why pretend not to understand the plight of the poor masses? How much is a minister paid? How do the president receive as salary and allowances? How much do an MP receive? they all take home fat and huge salaries. Yet water, light, health, fuel and accomodation are all free of charge for these criminals who call themselves leaders! The poor man who receive very little salary is slapped with heavy utility bill that they politicians do not pay for, on the poor man who has many mouths to feed. Do these greedy bastards think of the poor people who sacrifice their time and lives to campaign and vote for them? Let Mahama step down if this is how he wants to treat us! I supported his cause but this is getting out of hand. I support the truth but insensitive leaders I will always denounce! Enough of this corruption and criminal acts!

I earlier told all that, Mother Ghana is in Prison in the hands of the NDC and, only NPP can can bail and save madam Ghana. TUC plan action will yield no fruit as the same feather in the NDC. The better Ghana agender as campained on by mahama politically has become better borrowing, hardship and embezzlement by the NDC who stole the mandate of the people. We have not seen any thing yet. The World Bank has issued a strong warning to Ghana about the danger resulting from Mahama and the NDC. The Battle is still the Lord.

Private schools and universities fund all their activities, make profit and are taxed yet the govt highly funds public schools yet their products cannot be compared. Uni should be privatised

The increasement is very high for the populaton but for the industry its a killer. Unions of all parts in the country have to come together and make their threat real. If no reduction for the industry and unions then stop working. Tha country will collapse cause the Government need them more then the Unions need the Government. Just look at countries like Germany or UK. Big corporations pay far less utility bills so that they can produce and export. U can only get a positive financial record if you become an exporting country. Ghana politics have taken ghanaians to long for ride now. More then 50 years they got played. Its time to shake the system up and let the stupid, selfish and corrupt politicians know enough is enough or face a coup but this time a bloody one.

The TUC can go and burn the ocean. They are only active when NDC is in power. We were here when NPP raised petrol price from Gh.60p to Ghc5 we did not hear from them!

Ensuring efficiency is best executed by scaling down the bogus MPs and ministers like you and but not to burden the already impoverished masses.
