Don't fall for any load shedding timetable - Gov't warns

A supposed load shedding timetable has been seen making the rounds on social media, but government has described the said document as a “hoax.”

Dumsor still with us…?

“Don’t fall for LOAD SHEDDING GUIDE” -we have confirmed with the@ElectricityCoGh : the document is a Hoax!”, government said in a post on Twitter.

Meanwhile, workers of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) have blamed President John Mahama for their inability to publish a load-shedding timetable for consumers to enable them to plan their activities.

“The timetable for the current load shedding also called ‘dumsor’ is ready but the president says we should not publish it,” the workers told Daily Guide newspaper.

Samuel Tetteh Agbetor, chairman of the Western Regional Workers’ Union of ECG, said: “Dumsor is back, and the government should be bold enough to allow ECG to announce the timetable for load shedding.”

According to him, the current energy problem has to do with generation by the Volta River Authority (VRA) adding that:”we the staff of ECG will not sit down to be blamed or allow anyone to put our lives in jeopardy.”
