Why should we always rely on foreign investors? Is it that the blackman can't think or we are forever doomed to be stupid? Is it advantageous for our deficit to attract foreign investors?
Why can't we de-regulate the energy sector and give Ghanaians the chance to invest in that area ? Should it be always foreigners?
We have such problems, because we are insincere and corrupt,even should such chances be created, people in government will share it amongst themselves.
l bet you there is a Ghanaian out there who has the capability to solve this energy problem , but his activities is being thwarted because he doesn't belongs to the NDC. Oh Maame Ghana I cry for you always !!!!

It seems there is no need to "create" now. Dumsor exists already so all NDC needs to do is to loot and share in the name of Dumsor!!!

People of La Dadekotopon, I have a thought to share with you. I send you my best regards. (mii hany3 omanye) I believe there are a lot of very respectful and decent people among you who are very worried about what your 'MOUTH PIECE' in parliament is today. (I mean the person representing you in parliament) He sums up what is suppose to come from La Dadekotopon. I know many communities just like you have made mistakes by electing people who have nothing in common with the values of the communities they represent. IT WAS BY MISTAKE THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED. YOU CAN REDEEM YOURSELVES WHEN GIVEN THE CHANCE AGAIN. I know come 2016, you will not let your brothers and sisters who are less fortunate to go to school impose a character like AMASA NAMOALE alias BBC NEWS!!!!! on you again. You can succeed in doing that by educating them, that, it takes more than akp3t3shie or what one will eat at a particular time to make one happy. One can be happy when one has a respectable representative in parliament who thinks about Ghana, and will work to bring progress in the lives of those he represents and the nation as at large, by supporting programs and policies that will give birth to these. Not someone who will fully SUPPORT A BAD CITIZEN LIKE WAYOME TO DUPE HIS OWN COUNTRY. Amasa Namoale thinks the money given to Woyome is ''GOVERNMENT MONEY'', a old mentality that means it is nobody's money and therefore it is ok to be stolen. This way of thinking has destroyed many state agencies. Amasa Namoale has for some time now been posting irresponsible comments about what he thinks concerning the Wayome saga. Some of which are ''WAYOME DESERVE THE MONEY'', ''LEAVE WAYOME ALONE, HE DESERVE THE MONEY'' ''USELESS FORMER AG/ MARTIN AMIDU IS JUST A PATHETIC LIAR AND A HYPOCRITE'' among some of his irresponsible comments. A few days ago, he granted an interview to a radio station, where he declared his support for Wayome and urged him to sue government for more money. I don't think this is the kind of person you want to see in parliament, let alone represent the good people of LA DADEKOTOPON. So please, people of LA DADEKOTOPON, REDEEM YOUR GOOD NAME BY VOTING OUT THIS CHAFF, CALLED AMASA NAMOALE IN 2016, Replacing him with a more credible son of your area. Thank you all.

Rawlings through J.A.Kufour to John Mahama, have invested into this fiasco of Ghana power have all been for not and need foreigners to come run our power generation and distribution system for people claiming to have been matured at the time of independence?
Spio-Garbrah and others with jurisdiction over Ghana must put on the breaks for a minute and conduct a thorough examination of any original plans for the complete electrification of Ghana at the time of Nkrumah's CPP to ascertain how subsequent government activities had either been in line with or deviated from those plans. What exactly are those foreign investors to do? Are we now going to sell another major utility to foreign interests like J.A. Kufour did selling off Ghana Telecom to Vodafone? Civilized and industrialized nations where free market principles drive economic activities for the rich and powerful have never acquiesced to handing over utilities to foreigners so why must it be so in Ghana? Are we not the very Ghana where NPP and NDC look forward to copying all things UK and or USA for transplant in Ghana even when conditions on the ground are unfavorable for the success of such implementations? Why not stick with that trend until we see our lords and masters go the route of foreign control of their respective utility systems before we do so?
Reliance on Russian natural gas supply to power some utilities in some EU nations cannot be misconstrued as being equivalent to selling interest in our utilities to foreign ownership.

Why wait till the problem come before you start to look for solution? Could you not see five years ago that the population, cell phone use, families with cars etc will increase? The fact is you have been busy awarding contracts to your friends and getting kick backs and making NDC strong in order to win the blessing of Rawlings and his family. You have failed those who voted you into power. May be you can get away with that because most of them are ignorant.

If the leadership cannot resolve that Electricity problems,but expect the so called-foreign direct investment,then what is the use of Academic Education -(numerous Degrees) in the Country.(Just to sit in the Office to get paid at the end of the month) ?
Why can't we plan to help ourselves but always expecting to get foreign loans,and so on.I know that there's not economic independent anywhere in the world but,Does Independent/
independence not also means self-supporting ? So, why can't we plan to help our self(nation).
Unless "Dumsor" is a Sabotage, the problem could be traced to lack of general National Planning(economic and whatever) in Commensurate with Population Growth.That's to say most CEO's especially in the utilities sector's donot know what to do as against what is required of them on the portfolios they hold.And there's not a Team of Management experts (taskforce) which demand their Plans for Scrutiny,of the institutions they are the Head's, and then follow it up to the Offices of these CEO'S to Vet their Plans and Programs every one or two year/yrs.
Or maybe the reluctance on the part of Govt to release funds.
Just one payment of the numerous judgement debts could resolved some issues.eg like 90,000,000 Euros paid to CP and other hefty amounts paid.
Kwame Nkrumah's question,slightly altered by me, remains relevant to this day : Are some Black leadership capable of managing their own affairs! Ghana could do better for itself . Osagyefo Dr Prof Kwame Nkrumah did it,Dr Hilla Liman's CPP administration short rule,proved it,but the baseless Coup against his govt.

Ghana should invest in solar energy, as we have plenty of sunshine,instead of relying on the power from the lake and building dams. It will require skili,and the technology for these kind of projects. If Ghana has to take their own destiny in their own hands, we ned to change our Education system and concentrate on science and technology. These areas are where the innovation has to come from and not the subjects,such as political science and the unproductive subjects, which students are forced to study at the University at the moment.Ghana is really lacking behind and as a consequence the country is suffering. We are relying too much on the colonial Education, but the colonialists have changed their Education and with innovations from Universities and foresight of their leaders, have made a good stripe in improving the standard of leaving of their population. It is alright for us to get angry that foreigners are taking the cream away from us but we need to ask ourselves whether if this is the fault of those who come to exploit Ghanaians, or whether we allow ourselves to be exploited, because we can only talk and not have the skills to use our own resources.Ghanaians have suffered enough with utiliies and many will rather welcome genuine investors to bring their skills and technology into the countryas much as we don't want this.

Electricity could be got from various sources and not just one.
I really admired and respected Spio untill now. How can you say that dumsor is what is bringing investors to town. That means the ndc will never solve the problem. Shame on you Spio.
He only said it has attracted foreign investors willing to address the problem... And to him it looks like a win win situation if we were to consider it... GH journalists write stories to suit them.
You are missing the point. There are investors in the country with interests in the energy sector.
Why should we always rely on foreign investors? Is it that the blackman can't think or we are forever doomed to be stupid? Is it advantageous for our deficit to attract foreign investors?

The government creates a need situation by its lack of foresight. Then invites foreign investors to help solve the problem, and then government officials get their precentages in bribes. How can this country develop ?

These ministers take these expensive trips to look for investors so must justify the essence of the trip. When are the foreign investors coming? Ghana desperately needs to end dumsor.
It seems there is no need to "create" now. Dumsor exists already so all NDC needs to do is to loot and share in the name of Dumsor!!!

Who generated that electricity you call "our own"?? And who built even the "sources of electrical energy" we are now calling "our own"?? Do you(we) have the means to go solo???
Do something quick about it to redeem your party.
Personally, I think it would be interesting if those proposing solutions would find a way to help manage the crisis if one way or the other is adopted. Otherwise, corruption would step in as usual and we would get nowhere.
Local partners can also seize opportunity. Local business, stand up and be counted.
Positive results from dumsor. Ugly akuffo addo shd organizd a foolish demostration fo dis one too.
KWASIAMAN!! IF THAT'S THE BEST SITUATION, THEN WE MUST AS WELL CUT POWER, WATER, FUEL,NETWORK ETC COMPLETELY!! THAT'S WHEN WE WILL GET ALL INVESTORS IN THE WORLD FLOCKING TO GHANA!!! NONSENSE!!!
That is fatalistic. Look on the brighter side.
Investors are coming because they have seen that NDC can't even solve a single basic problem.They want our money.This is not a positive sign.Only foolish and lazy people will take credit for this.
No! no!! no!!!
Every investor, foreign or local, looks 4 opportunities to make more money.
oh ohh oooh when wil u ppl realise u ar been fooled as well.' a sick goat is not considered as a dead goat so wait fr yr soo called lovers of dumsor to cm. an ugly man is better than a dead goat.
Nkrumah was really alone in being a visionary. Now, we are looking at foreigners to fix our problems. Might as well go back to the Colonial days.
No to Colonial rule. Yes to a determined population that comes together to find solutions to national problems.
This NDC government has no shame! You create a huge problem (dumsor) in the country to attract foreign investments and you feel so proud of it as a minister. Are you insane, Spio???
Challe the guy is crazy. Its very bad. these guys are selling all our national assetts
Ask Kufuor who created the energy problem? K4 was supposed to add 1800MW in 8yrs. Go ask ur damn mother fucker if K4 even provided 500MW. After this 'dumshit' is rectified, then we shall explain 'na who cause am'. Nonsense
You have serious issues boy. You should go to hospital!!

SHAME ON TO YOU SPIO
For a country like Ghana, after 58 years of Independence, to tell its citizens that it cannot solve energy problem is a shame.
Where are all the local engineers?
I LOVE THE WASTE TO ENERGY PROPOSAL.
THEN SPEED UP !

Let's then go ahead and destroy our military institutions (security) so that foreign security organisations like BOKO HARAM & ISIS can be attracted to Ghana and take care of our national security for us. BRAVO , SPIO & NDC
Is this a case of "one step forward, two steps backward" or a case of "robbing Peter to pay Paul"? Either way it simply means the situation remains unchanged.
