The Minister for Energy, John Abdulai Jinapor, has attributed the country’s current energy challenges to the weak state of the sector inherited by the government.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme on Thursday, 20th February, he assured Ghanaians that the government is working tirelessly to resolve the issues.
According to Mr Jinapor, the erratic power supply being experienced in various parts of the country is a result of deep-rooted structural problems within the energy sector.
He urged the public to remain patient while the government implements long-term solutions to stabilise the situation.
“We inherited a very weak energy sector. Ghanaians should bear with us as we work to fix the problems permanently.”
“The current erratic supply situation should be stable in two weeks’ time,” he stated.
His comments were aimed at addressing growing concerns over frequent power outages.
The Minister reaffirmed the government’s commitment to ensuring a reliable and efficient energy supply across the country.
He expressed confidence that the measures being put in place would not only restore stability but also prevent future disruptions.
