Dumsor Pandemic: Nana Addo must apologize to Mahama and Ghanaians

Many Ghanaians have not only lost interest and trust in politicians because of their corrupt nature but for the fact that politicians are allergic to lies and baseless propaganda.

It is almost becoming clear that if you want to go far in Ghanaian politics, then you have to part ways with truth.

Dumsor became a household daily discourse during the era of John dramani Mahama when there was intermittent power outages. Even though dumsor intensively lasted for almost two years, Mahama and his NDC administration aggressively fought the power challenge and by 2016, dumsor was over.

Expectedly as it was, Nana Addo and his disciples in opposition then lambasted Mahama for 'incompetently' managing the situation.

In fact, Mahama was a sleepless man during such period because the insults, accusations, condemnations, demonstrations, dumsor vigils, propaganda and the partisan politics of the 'dumsorization' was not easy accommodating.

Nana Addo and his campaign team then capitalized on it and campaigned vigorously for change on the bases of dumsor of which in deed Ghanaians voted for change.

As visionary as Mahama is, he procured emergency power plants and other power capacity generation agreements which led to the end of dumsor. There is no doubt that Mahama ended dumsor before handing power to Nana Addo in 2017. That is factual!

Last year, Dr Bawumia sarcastically compared 'Mahama dumsor' with the corona virus pandemic and how both leaders had managed those pandemics. He claimed that Mahama could not handled the 'dumsor pandemic' as compared to how Nana Addo is handling the corona virus pandemic. In fact Dr Bawumia in many of his propaganda platforms claimed that John Mahama never ended dumsor and that it was Nana Addo who did.

Now my questions to Dr Bawumia:

1. Will you agree or disagree with your boss Nana Addo that if the light goes off and comes back it's dumsor?

2. Will you announce to Ghanaians that there's an outbreak of another pandemic call 'dumsor21'?

3. Do you still stand by your argument that Mahama did not end dumsor?

4. Will you apologize to Ghanaians for your lies and propaganda against Mahama on dumsor?

Well, there are no magical convincing answers to these questions. But maybe another rhetorics as usual.

Is it not annoying sometimes listening to some government appointees and their communicators trying to justify the current power situation? Some said it is not dunsor whilst others say it is a special dumsor. Whichever way you want to explain it, does the light goes off and comes back? What term is given to that?

I leave it at the door steps of Ghanaians.

Shockingly as it is, Ghana is back to the era of 'dumsorization', and i am very amazed how Ghanaians are voicelessly suffering under this government. Where are the loudmouth civil service organizations who operated fearlessly during John Mahama's era?

Where are the 'wise' celebrities who organized the dumsor vigil because tolerant Mahama was a president?.

President Akuffo Addo must apologize to Ghanaians and Mahama or resign to save his fast eroding reputation.

Power distribution companies such ECG, VRA, etc are complaining of inadequate finance to take routine maintenance.

What did not we hear during Mahama regime? Where is the money? Why are we all quite?

By the way, Nana Addo must apologize to Ghanaians and Mahama. It it very simple!
