The Energy Ministry has justified recent remarks made by the sector minister, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, regarding his challenge to critics to release their timetable for the ongoing power outages if they presume there is “Dumsor”.

His comment has since sparked controversy with some session of the public terming it as an indirect insult.

However, the Energy Ministry in a press release dated Tuesday, March 26, and signed by the sector’s spokesperson, Kofi Abrefa Afena, emphasized that Dr. Prempeh was simply briefing the media with facts.

“The Minister dismissed the need for a load management timetable because in his view and as indicated by the Electricity Company of Ghana, the causes of the temporary power challenges are being addressed.

“The Honourable Minister has always been sensitive to the plight of the Ghanaian people and continues to ask for their forbearance, as has always been the case when challenges relative to power stability emerge,” the statement said.

According to the statement, the ministry is ensuring that the recent power crisis is resolved.

“The Ministry wishes to assure the general public that the Ministry as the policy maker and mother agency of the various power sector actors is working assiduously with these agencies to ensure that the temporary challenges are resolved,” it added.
