    Check your lines for possible power theft. My meter was draining me but after checking my line, I realized a co-tenant had tapped my line and was enjoying it.

    Hahaha! It's no laughing matter but you just made my day. What a co-tenant!

    If you want to be sure you are not being ripped off, you can buy a DIN Energy Meter. It will record all the power you use and you can check if it tallies with your electric equipment power consumption. If there is a discrepan ...

    We are all complaining, but if somebody calls a demonstration against it, we'll all be home watching him on TV and condemning him if he spills sachet water on the police by accident.

  • Anukwade 2 years ago

    Yes ooo, and they'll tag him as NDC.

  • Gborlahn 2 years ago

    My friend, how can you tell me this? Spill sachet water on the police by mistake? I mean how??? How would you even get close to police during a strike to even spill water on him. . .by mistake?

  • Gaskia 2 years ago

    Boss, please I wrote about "demonstration", not "strike". Police get close to demonstrators and look for ways to arrest them.

    The ongoing rip-off is all the doing of Knucklehead Drivermate Dr. Bawumiah and Akuffo Addo and NPP.
    They`re enriching themselves at a very fast pace at the expense of the Ghanaians. But we look on helplessly.

    Nothing seems to be working anymore in Ghana. How can the cost of electricity be more than cost of rent in a month?

  • DR OKANTEY 2 years ago

    There comes a time in a country's life when majority of people say to themselves loudly- "WE SHOULD NEVER GET THIS LOW AGAIN". Maybe that's where Ghana is at this time. Where are the intelligent people in the country? Your bi ...
