Despite recent power outages, the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has revealed that no load-shedding schedule will be required.
The ECG claims that the nation’s present power supply issues do not call for the establishment of a load-shedding schedule.
Laila Abubakar, the External Communications Manager at ECG, clarified in an interview in Accra that there may be other reasons behind the recent power outages and that the well-known “dumsor” has not reappeared.
“The thing is, we just want people to be aware that when your power goes off, it is not always a matter of load shedding. There are several issues and there are some of them that fall before the doorsteps of ECG. We are doing as much as possible to solve the ones that we can.
“There aren’t any issues with shedding load. The load shed, I think is what people understand by ‘Dumsor’. But usually, when someone asks me if, there is Dumsor, I ask them what do you understand and what do you think ‘Dumsor’ means. Unfortunately, there wouldn’t be a timetable.”
However, earlier this month, Samuel Dubik Mahama, the Managing Director (MD) of the ECG, addressed the frequent power outages, or dumsor, and stated that the company was experiencing some maintenance problems.
He stated the issues people are having are caused by the company’s use of machines, which are prone to malfunctioning at any time.
