In a heartfelt letter shared on Twitter, Nelson expressed deep concern over the return of the debilitating power outage issue and called for a united effort to demand accountability from the nation's leaders.

The letter, addressed to fellow Ghanaians, highlighted Nelson's history as an advocate for positive change, referencing the 2015 DumsorMustStop Campaign that she spearheaded alongside notable personalities such as Kofi Bentil from Imani Ghana, Prince David Osei, D Black, Van Vicker, Efya, Sarkodie, Barima Sidney, and DKB.

Nelson reminisced about the challenges faced during the initial campaign and emphasized the need for another collective effort to address the recurring power crisis. She noted the persistence of Dumsor for an extended period, describing it as alarming and detrimental to the nation's progress.

Despite acknowledging the shifting political landscape and some individuals' realignments, Nelson stressed the non-partisan nature of the fight against Dumsor. She called on Ghanaians from all walks of life, including legal professionals, volunteers, and concerned citizens, to join her in pushing for meaningful action to resolve the current power crisis.

The actress said she had extended invitations to key figures from Imani Ghana, including Kofi Bentil and Franklin Cudjoe, seeking their support and collaboration in organizing another DumsorMustStop Vigil. However, she disclosed that she was yet to receive a response regarding their interest in supporting another vigil.
