Legal practitioner and media personality\u00a0Richard Dela Sky\u00a0has strongly criticized\u00a0President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo\u2018s government, accusing it of economic mismanagement amidst the ongoing power crisis, locally known as \u201cdumsor,\u201d in Ghana.<\/strong><\/p>\n Sky lambasted the government\u2019s handling of the situation, highlighting the economic hardships faced by Ghanaians due to power outages and the apparent collapse of the Cedi.<\/p>\n He expressed concern over the impact on workers across various sectors, noting that many are struggling to afford basic necessities and facing challenges due to frequent power outages affecting food preservation.<\/p>\n Sky also criticised the government\u2019s response, calling it passive and warning of potential electoral consequences if urgent action is not taken to address the pressing issues faced by citizens.<\/p>\n In a series of posts on social media, Sky pointed out the disconnect between the struggles of ordinary Ghanaians and the perceived extravagance of government officials, citing lavish events funded by government contracts while citizens suffer.<\/p>\n \u201cContrasts with the frivolity displayed by its upper ranks, who indulge in lavish birthday festivities for a notorious figure linked to the infamous escape of tax-funded guinea fowls, a scandal symbolizing alleged mismanagement and flight.<\/p>\n \u201cSuch events, funded perhaps with profit from government contracts paid for by the very citizens left in darkness, while the light stays on for a lavish birthday party for just one elite, underscore a disturbing disconnect with the struggles of the average Ghanaian.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is profoundly insulting that this government, which rose to power on commitments to rectify a power crisis mishandled by its predecessor, now blatantly disregards the demands of its citizens for a predictable load-shedding timetable.<\/p>\n \u201cToo soon, they seem to have forgotten how they came to form a government. The concerns of the citizenry no longer seem to matter to them. This neglect transcends policy failure; it is a profound betrayal of public trust,\u201d Richard Sky stated.<\/p>\n He emphasized that the government\u2019s neglect of citizen demands for a predictable power supply schedule represents a betrayal of public trust, especially considering the promises made during their rise to power.<\/p>\n See tweet below:<\/p>\n There goes our power supply again! Woga tsi dzo ake! Sad! <\/p>\n This NPP administration has thoroughly eroded the savings of numerous Ghanaians, thrusting them into dire economic straits through its visible incompetence and or egregious mismanagement of the national economy.<\/p>\n \u2014 Richard Dela Sky (rD.s) (@RichardDelaSky) April 20, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n tigpost.co <\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n\n
