The Member of Parliament-elect for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as Kwame A Plus, has attacked the Christian Council and civil society organizations for their silent posture on the return of the power outage under the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to him, these people know that dumsor as widely known was back but are waiting for President-elect John Dramani Mahama to take over before they start talking.
In a post on Facebook, A Plus stated that “Ghana is currently facing load-shedding, commonly known as dumsor. At the moment, Ghana has institutions and groups such as the Christian Council, civil society organizations like the Danquah Institute, and vocal Akans.
All these individuals, groups, and organizations are fully aware that the country is experiencing dumsor due to the incompetence of the overhyped Akufo Addo’s administration. Yet, they remain silent, seemingly waiting for John Mahama to assume office so they can quickly mobilize to declare that he has brought dumsor back,” the post reads.
He had therefore advised the Council to speak now or forever hold their peace.
“To the Christian Council: Speaker now or forever hold your peace! Be like Christ, who was unbiased and fearless. He looked the Pharisees in the eye and told them the truth. Do not reserve your voices for only when the NDC is in power.
Speak up now and tell the nation the truth—that Ghana is currently experiencing dumsor. That the economy is bad. Do not wait for John Mahama to be sworn in before you start speaking out, like Balaam’s donkey in the Bible. You are human beings, not donkeys—act like it,” says A Plus.
