Loans here, loans there, loans everywhere! Yet 700 workers - human beings with families, children to support are to be made useless. Why a new company? Another Ghana International Airlines scam? God help Ghana!

These guys can develop plans to lay off workers, but cannot design strategies to keep the lights on;always complaining about lack of funds. The MoE should takes this opportunity to prune the top-heavy management of this useless state agency. It should let all the 'bid boys' who have let the nation suffer through this madness of 'dumsor-dumsor' for such a long time. We have young and energetic engineers who can be recruited to turn things around for just a fraction of the cost of maintaining this useless and partisan mgmt. This is good chance for Kofi Armah Buah to redeem himself,and enjoy the last laugh!

Why lay workers off when many are already unemployed graduates? Where is Ghana heading? Let K. Boateg tell us. Perhaps there should be jobs for the party sycophants.

Not adding any value to power generation in this country! Where else would many of these useless top managers continue to be on the payroll for messing things up royally? I have had dealings with with some of the big global players connected power generation - GE,Siemens,Cooper Power,Schneiders, to name a few - and trust me, they do not 'monkey around' at all! You deal with agroup of Engineers one day,only to learn they have become history for not meeting objectives and or timelines for big-money projects.
I am really astounded to read this type of comment from you,a vocal critic of this administration! May be you and your party can find spaces for these hopelessly inefficient SOBs who have become such a huge drain on our national treasury.
