General News Yvonne Nelson blasts government over continuing 'Dumsor'
APR 30, 2015 LISTEN

For over two years, Ghanaians have been grappling with constant power cuts due to shortfalls in power generation and President John Mahama’s government is currently unpopular due its handling of the country's power crises.

While Ghanaians are crying bitterly about the effects of the situation on their lives, promises by the government that it is working round the clock to fix the problem have so far not been met.

Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson is unamused about the continuing power rationing, popularly known as ‘Dumsor’, and believes that the situation is here to stay due to Government’s unwillingness to end the situation.

The actress is among celebrities like Lydia Forson, Wanlov the Kubolor, and Chris Attoh, who have called on Government to urgently find a solution to the problem.

Lamenting on twitter, Yvonne Nelson expressed her disappointment at the fact that Government is not being truthful to Ghanaians about the situation.

“It's soo sad, this dumsor crap is here to stay! They will just not tell the people the truth! They'll wait and let us get used to it!” she said.

The actress warned that, “The [minute] people in government start investing in generators will be the end of Ghana. They will make sure the dumsor continues forever n ever”.

Yvonne Nelson stressed that the situation is shameful and she “can never get used to it! How does our economy grow? Businesses are closing! Kids in school are failing! What a shame.”

She further lamented that “The president doesn't even see our tweets to him because the page is obviously not run by him! What's the use? If you don't handle your [account]?”

“Ghanaians wake up! We seriously don't deserve this! #dumsormuststop” she urged and added, “How will our country be productive? We can't function! It's sooo wrong!”
