Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson recently criticized the government for the country's power outages, which have been happening intermittently. In a tweet on Tuesday, the actress urged the government of President Akufo-Addo to resolve the ongoing issue of power shortages in the nation. "Whether it's for an hour, twelve hours, twenty-four hours, or every day, Mr. President, DUM SOR is DUM SOR. Someone, please fix it!" On March 12th, she tweeted.
In 2015, when the electricity went out, the famous actress took the lead in a protest against the John Mahama regime. In 2015, while John Mahama was in office, Yvonne Nelson was among several celebrities—including Van Vicker, Prince David Osei, DKB, and others—who demanded an end to the power outages. At the same time, the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) warned that the Ghanaian people should expect additional power interruptions between 7 and 11 p.m. when demand is highest.
630 distribution transformers in communities across its operational zones are currently above capacity owing to increased power usage, according to a social media post by ECG. Specifically, it stated that this could lead to damaged wires and blown fuses, which could lead to power outages in the impacted areas between 7 and 11 p.m. when demand is highest. Nevertheless, the company wants its customers to know that they are improving their transformers and are working on new projects to alleviate these transformers so that the power supply is more reliable, according to the article.
Customers who have been impacted are asked to be patient and supportive as the ECG works to enhance Ghana's electricity distribution system. Samuel Dubik Mahama, the ECG's MD, addressed the regular power disruptions (dumsor) earlier this month by saying that the firm was experiencing maintenance challenges.

Do utilize Nana Addo to regain your popularity if it has dropped, you useless girl. Shameless, mend your career; he gave his all to this nation when times were good.
Lockheed: Hahaha. The timing of Dumsor during the NPP era is surprising. When it comes to our electric car economy, the light always goes out, day or night.
