TUC urges President Akufo-Addo to fix erratic power crisis; describes current Dumsor problem as “regrettable”
"After all we have gone through in the past, this must not be happening. It is affecting everyone, especially the industry."
Secretary-General of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), Dr. Yaw Baah, has described the current power crisis as “regrettable”.
The Secretary General of TUC called on President Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo to urgently address the erratic power supply currently facing the country.
Dr. Baah made the appeal during this year’s May Day celebration, on Wednesday May 1, 2024 in Accra.
Dr. Baah lamented the negative impact of the power outages on industries and the public.
“The current erratic power supply is regrettable, Dr. Baah stated. “After all we have gone through in the past, this must not be happening. It is affecting everyone, especially the industry.”
Dr. Baah emphasized the need for a reliable and consistent power supply to drive economic growth and development. He urged the President to take immediate action to address the issue, which has caused widespread frustration and disruption to businesses and households.
The TUC Secretary-General’s call for action comes amid growing concerns about the frequent power outages, which have been blamed on various factors, including aging infrastructure and transmission challenges.
Dr. Baah’s appeal to the President is seen as a clarion call to address a critical issue affecting the nation’s productivity and economic progress.
