    The ECG with the police should conduct routine inspections of all homes and their power sources. Culprits should be assessed heavy monetary fines and subjected to street cleaning as standard punishment.

    The presidency of Mahama is like a snake bite. Until the Poison is cured from the body, the victim will continue to suffer!. That is why Ghanaians must VOTE-OUT Mahama in 2016 Elections!.
