The Director of Elections and IT for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr Edward Omane Boamah, has questioned the basis of Ghanaians experiencing power outages (Dumsor) when the previous Mahama administration provided enough power generation plants including the Ameri thermal plant.
He described the government as ‘deceitful’ and ‘incompetent’ and one that cannot be truthful about ‘Dumsor’.
In a post on his Facebook page, he said “Dear Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh (Napo) & Dr. Bawumia. Is this Dumsor Power Diabetes: Such that Power is Abundant but Homes and Businesses are Lacking Power?

“Your deceitful and incompetent Akufo-Addo Bawumia government cannot even be truthful about Dumsor! PURC says transformers are not the cause of the dumsor Ghanaians are confronted with.
“What justification can your NPP government offer Ghanaians for plunging Ghana into Dumsor when John Dramani Mahama provided enough power generation plants including the Ameri thermal plant which you have recently re-located to Kumasi and re-named?
“And if I may add should Ghanaians not be ‘whipping and slapping’ your government for lying about paying for excess power and blaming Mahama for it???
