Actress and movie producer Yvonne Nelson has added her voice to the growing number Ghanaians calling for an end to the country’s continuous erratic power supply popularly known as ‘dumsor’.<\/strong><\/p>\n The popular actress took to her Twitter page to express her growing frustration.<\/p>\n She said: ‘It’s so 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.’<\/p>\n Yvonne continued: ‘The minute people in government start investing in generators will be the end of Ghana. They will make sure the dumsor continues forever and ever.’<\/p>\n The actress stated further: ‘I can never get used to it! How does our economy grow? Businesses are closing! Kids in school are failing! What a shame.<\/p>\n ‘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?[sic]<\/strong><\/p>\n Ghanaians, wake up! We seriously don’t deserve this! #dumsormuststop’<\/strong><\/p>\n ‘How will our country be productive? We can’t function! It’s sooo wrong!’ Yvonne concluded.<\/p>\n Interestingly, her fellow actor John Dumelo, also commenting on the same problem, said Ghanaians are complaining unnecessarily and mounting undeserved pressure on President John Mahama.<\/p>\n Dumelo, in an interview with Starr Fm, noted: ‘We should just give him [Mahama] time to solve the problems. The problems are there but it\u2019s four years; Rome wasn’t built in a day\u2026 and if after 2016 the problems are not solved, then we know what to do.<\/p>\n John Dumelo Meanwhile, many Ghanaian businesses and industries continue to suffer as a result of the erratic power supply while several workers continue to lose their jobs.<\/p>\n Just this week, popular beverage producing company Blue Skies said it would lay off a thousand of its workers in the next few weeks if nothing was done to improve the erratic power supply in the country.<\/p>\n According to Joy News, the company’s Head of Public Relations and Projects, Alistair Djimatey, explained that because of the dumsor crisis the company spends an additional \u00a320,000 a week to fuel generators to run the facility. He said the company plans to shut down one of its plants due to high production cost following the power crisis.<\/p>\n <\/strong>
