Yes ours has to be cheaper because we are better endowed by God but our leader have stolen our benefits through blatant stealing, corruption, incompetent appointment, acquisition of fake equipment and many more. Power should be much cheaper if PURC do not conspire with utility providers to cheat on the very people from whose pocket they are paid.

There they go again with comparisons. Nonsense, do we have the same things in all sectors? Power may be expensive in Ivory Coast, but they may have something that complements price they for power. When they have no reason in ripping the nation, they begin to compare. Useless people. Its election year and Mahama is using all possibilities to rip us off and use it to buy free "things" for people to buy votes. No matter what you people do, enough is enough. We have been disappointed enough by your incompetency. Even if the so called new message "money into your pocket" can be true, it is a very unwise campaign slogan. You have been ripping us off since 2012 and if you give it back to us in 2017, what have you done....are we still not the same as 2012? This simply means, you have done us nothing, instead, what belonged to us till now have been stolen. You have cheated us. Tell mosquito, that this slogan is for the class pupil. W e have advanced than their level. Corruption has blindfolded your IQ and cannot think anymore.

Do we always have to call people names. What is wrong with us? Let us talk about issues and stop calling people names. Personal attacks don't solve problems.

I do not see how this lady can be made to says things like these without substantiation. She should be asked to bring out the tariff table for West African countries

It's always a shameful augment to follow when certain people raise to some levels in society then they to pretend to forget of the reality of matters of life. Our Madam Yaa is talking about Ghana's power tariff as being one of the lowest in the Sub region but having forgotten that, these tariffs should be marching the Pay Rates of the citizenry. So please let these talkatives who only desire to talk in defence of their thrones acquired at the expense of others learn of some simple facts before coming out to say hurtful words to the common public servants who are dieing with that unmeasurable salaries they receive as compared to that of their equals in the Sub Region. Unless they are Paid to Talk so they Careless about facts of the living standards.

There are no jobs, youth unemployment is so high, how can we afford these tariffs. Our leaders need to start paying their own electric, water bills and also buy their own fuel for their V8s .
