Ghana faces serious energy crisis ‘Dumsor’ as there is currently insufficient fuel in stock for power generation.
The country’s current fuel supply for power generation will not last more than two days, according to John Abdulai Jinapor, NDC Member of Parliament (MP) for Yapei-Kusawgu constituency.
‘So, in two days’ time, we are likely to run out of fuel’, Jinapor told JoyNews in an interview monitored by Kasatintin.com.
The MP claimed that the immediate past Nana Akufo-Addo-led government failed to make necessary fuel procurements despite repeated warnings and calls to do so.
He said ‘I have bad news for you. As of today, the confirmation we are receiving is that we have only five hours’ worth of fuel left…If you look at the heavy fuel oil and diesel fuel, we don’t have enough to last two days. So, in two days’ time, we are likely to run out of fuel…This administration (Akufo-Addo) has not placed any fuel orders as we speak’.
