Former Deputy Energy Minister, John Jinapor has predicted the country will soon be taken back to dark days of energy crisis, popularly known as Dumsor.
Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta presenting the 2018 budgetary estimates in Parliament on Wednesday said the erratic power challenges known as ‘dumsor’ is “dead”.
The current government, he said, would put a stop to the agitations and demonstrations that were linked to dumsor.
“When I presented the budget in March, I indicated our commitment to take strategic steps to fix the challenges facing the economy and restore hope to Ghanaians,” the Finance Minister noted.
Reacting to this comment on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen Wednesday, the former Energy Minister said the current government cannot claim credit for stopping Dumsor as according to him, the current has ‘done nothing to stop the crisis’.
“The Minister told us that they have stopped dumsor, Minister, what did you do? Let me explain to you, go to the Energy Commission and check, 2016, there was no dumsor…,” he said.
