Deputy Spokesperson for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, Ekua Amoakoh, has reacted to the fire outbreak at the Akosombo Power Control Centre.
Speaking on JoyNews AM Show, she said the incident has created significant operational challenges that should remain the priority of the government instead of focusing on ‘settings.’
“We really are interested in the energy sector,” she said, referencing public concern over the disruption.
The fire at the Akosombo facility affected transmission capacity and triggered widespread outages across parts of the country, after which engineers worked on it to restore power.
Ekua Amoakoh argued that discussions around administrative changes within the sector risk diverting attention from the technical recovery process.
“These settings really are just distracting from the main problem,” she said.
She added that the focus should remain on restoring stable power supply rather than interpreting leadership movements as punitive actions.
“It means you are not spending time on the main problem,” she stated.

These are some of the reasons many consider Mahama a weak president or too humble. He needs to put those who run the ECG into bankruptcy, responsible for the huge debt of 1.2 billion and the stealing of the ECG containers, on trial. This is to be done for the NPP thieves to know the crimes they have committed; otherwise, destitutes like Akua Amoakoh will keep on barking like a dog. Many are getting impatient with the president today.
