IT HAS TO BE POINTED OUT TO GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE LEADERSHIP THAT THEY'VE FAILED THE NATION GHANA BIG TIME, MAINLY DUE TO CORRUPTION IN HIGH PLACES IN GHANA, INCLUDING THE CLERGY.
MALAYSIA HAS OVERTAKEN GHANA IN ALMOST EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN, YET GHANA IS ENDOWED WITH RESOURCES WHICH CONTINUES TO BE THE JEALOUSY OF MANY COUNTRIES.
GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE LEADERS ARE A HUGE DISGRACE!!!
WHERE ARE ALL OF NKRUMAH'S STRATEGIC BUSINESS INVESTMENTS CALLED CORPORATIONS? OUR LEADERS HAVE RUN ALL OF THEM AGROUND IN AN EXERCISE CALLED "DIVESTMENT" AND POCKETED THE PROCEEDS.
TODAY, GHANA COMPLAINS ABOUT YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT AND FALLING RATE OF THE CEDI. WHY? BECAUSE GHANA\S LEADERS HAVE LOOTED ALL OF THE PROPERTIES NKRUMAH ESTABLISHED TO PROP UP GHANA'S ECONOMY AND MAKE LIFE MEANINGFUL FOR GHANAIANS.
AND SO GOES WITH DUBAI, QATAR, INDIA, PAKISTAN AND MANY OTHER COUNTRIES.
GHANA'S LEADERS ARE SIMPLY LAZY EASY MONEY GRABBERS, INCOMPETENT, VISIONLESS AND CLUELESS.
PUT ALL OF THOSE VIRTUES TOGETHER, AND YOU HAVE A POTENT RECIPE FOR DISASTER, AND THOSE ARE WHAT GHANAIANS ARE EXPERIENCING NOW - DISASTROUS SUCCESSIVE LEADERSHIP.
WE SHALL ALL CONTINUE TO SWIM IN THE QUAGMIRE.

Even if the ECG is privatized, it will not end "dumsor" because the owner's may not invest in generation, which is causing the "dumber"
But it may end government sector and government officials enjoying power for free while raising the power for poor citizens astronomically.
In addition to privatizing ECG, there is the need to invest in generation especially solar generation to feed into the national grid during the day.

No jobs,yet errand boys at FlagStaff House are buying houses in U.S.A with money from Ghana.The President said money is not the cause of dumsor,so what is this Minister saying?The only voice of the poor,jobless,downtrodden and disrespected masses is violence and Ghana for sure is threading that path.

NOTHING!! VERY SAD INDEED.

Something is wrong somewhere,how can we have floods killing innocent people during this rainy season and yet our dams are still dried up.Initially,the VRA told us that the water level in our dams are low that is why we have the wicked dumso.I am surprised that the water level is no longer the issue but has now come to financial problem.I believe the dumso is a deliberate action,a well calculated strategy for a political goal.This is exactly what happened in Nigeria where Boko Haram was allowed to terrorised the public until the very last days to the Presidential elections when President Goodluck marshalled soldiers to chase out Boko Haram from Nigeria.What is the logic in it?Thank you.

Would a private management team retain Ghanaians as frontline workers or exempt from existing laws so they could bring in foreign workers? Why must administrative incompetence at the ECG lead to privatization? Why does it take privatization to bring in new management that uses the very front line staff, streamline administrative staff, procedures and operations to bring efficiency? Hopefully this would not turn into another judgment debt saga when a new administration takes office then decides to review the process with an ultimate nullification of existing contract. We know the NDC is going to get a kickback; bribery and corruption are not yet dead in Ghana.
