  Npp supports the agenda of ECG privatization? As part of their campaign leading to the 2016 general election they were parallel to this course, to an extent of organizing demos. Now championing the process? Shame onto our leaders! We proclaimed and celebrate every year that we are independent yet we can't manage our own institutions. Corrupt egocentric politians, but, whenever they are tagged as corrupt they summon the person before their corrupt previleges commettee. Not long to come they gonna privatise the seat of government.

  We all remember how NPP under the perfidious JA Kufuor sold Ghana's preeminent Ashanti Goldfields Ltd. to the British Anglogold and went on to Buckingham Palace to celebrate his efforts with the Queen. It this same devious Kufuor's NPP which sold Ghana Telecom to another British Vodafone.
  
  These nation wreckers are back once again, but this time using its IMANI surrogates to look for a pretext to sell ECG. The modus operandi of these nation wreckers is in motion now; in the case of the sale of Ghana's preeminent Ashanti Goldfields Ltd. they tricked the general population into believing it was a merger between two gold mining giants rather than a downright sale. In the case of ECG, these NPP idiots are here again suggesting to Ghanaians the benefits of privatizing only the distribution of electricity citing the successes of Uganda and India (Delhi)
  
  The Americans are in town and they want our ECG and will not relent until they get it. They do not care paying their lackeys, IMANI, huge dollars to produce this quack research not worth the paper it is written on. Ghanaians are educated enough to know you can do a research to back up any outlandish proposals the human mind can think of.
  
  This IMANI nonsense begs the question: what are Ghanaians good for? Are we that useless and so stupid we cannot manage our important institutions such as ECG? Really, what is the Ghanaian really good for that we always want foreigners to meddle in our affairs? If it is not the bloody IMF, then it is the big bad bears, Britain and US
  
  Ghanaians should keep a watchful eyes on these NPP motherfuckers and nation wreckers. They sold our preeminent Ashanti Goldfields Ltd to the British Anglogold convincing us it was a merger, they will sell the ECG to the Americans using the distribution angle.
  
  Oh black Africans!!!

  It is very surprising that the ECG privatization has suddenly been described as a good thing under the NPP. It was a said to be evil under the past NDC and was used as a campaign issue against them. How is it now a good thing. God save us from politicians. All those supporting that today are hypocrites.

  This is a whole bunch of hogwash. Makes nary any sense and actually, it has even made the case not to under any circumstances privatize ECG.
  System losses, Revenue collection Tariff regime, subsidies are basically the issues that are important here.
  On subsidy that cannot be removed since removing it would leave some Ghanaians behind in climbing up the social and economic ladder. That is a non starter, and subsidies would have to be maintained for over the long term considering the economic climate and situation the country finds itself.
  The non-competitive tariff regime which has been stated has the underpinnings of super abnormal profit margins ie 1.92 kwh as opposed to the regional average of 0.40 kwh clearly makes the case for other alternatives, to nudge those figures to within an acceptable competitive regime.
  The problem with revenue collection has been identified, and we know it to be attributable to a larger extent, state institutions. Indeed, that constitutes the single largest problem in terms of the debt situation of ECG, which directly has an effect on the ability of ECG to undertake the needed upgrading of equipment to address those so-called system losses and theft.
  I am yet to be convinced of the necessity of the privatization of ECG given these facts. There are no quick fixes to the problems of the power sector. But we can start from somewhere by moving those state institutions off the grid. Throwing good money at ECG under the pretext of privatization is not the answer. This analysis by IMANI actually has not done anything to address the usefulness of the privatization of ECG in the least bit.
