Let us hope we get the fuel that will make the barge run to produce electricity. Was it even necessary to have a ceremony for its arrival? How much was spent for that? We just like to waste money unreasonably.

If the power badges cannot resolve dumsor this year, then Kwabena Donkor must resign at Dec 31, 2015 as per his promise!!! I believe he has a living conscience and will respond to the dictates of his conscience.

Nana nor no NPP sympathizer said the barge will never come, MR. APONKYE(probably you are also a dead goat by your name). What has been said all along is that, it will never be the solution to the power crisis, and this is exactly what the Minister is now also confirming! Also note that the power minister and the Mahama led NDC gov't has failed in the sense that, the date they promised the barges will arrive have long passed and as it stands now, it will never be ready to produce power by 31st December. This is where the problem is and if you have a long enough memory, you will remember that the promise and failed dates for resolving this power crisis which has elapsed for an unprecedented 3 years plus in our history is a demonstration of incompetence of the highest order by NDC and Mahama and now the power minister! The arrival of this barge should not be seen as a success story for NDC. Obviously it is not their money, it is we the tax payers money, and I can promise you in the not too distant future, the corrupt practices around the purchase of this barge which is why the NDC is keen about it because they are going to share that money will surface to your surprise!!

Voice of reason, u are not making any sense at all. Ghana has an installed capacity of abt 3000 mw and our consumption is abt 2900. So if u produce the same as u consume, the slightest disturbance in production results in dumsor. Remember machines break down, undergo maintenance repairs etc.
Come to even think of it, what sense does it to spend huge sums of money to buy new equipment when all u need is a much less amount to buy crude or gas? With the additional capacity, Ghanaians will still enjoy lights in case one or two plants break down.

So is the power minister not going to resign? Why did he make the U turn? I thought he promised that he was going to resign if the dumsor does not finish by the end of the year. Does he know his job at all? Can he differentiate what is dumsor and load shedding? To my understanding load shedding and dumsor are the same, so what is he talking about? This ministry was created as job for the boys it is of no use. Tax payer is the one that suffers.

JD Mahama has wrong priorities. His policies and developments are in disarray, not coherent, they are scattered over the country and prioritised. If the power crisis had been given a top priority right from 2013, it would have been solved long ago. The government denied that the power crisis was due to money shortage but rather it was technical challenges. Why the denials? Even a layman knows that the scarce money spent on roads in the north of the country, for example, should have been delayed till the power crisis has been resolved. Now many businesses have closed and a lot of people have been laid off. If the government had shifted the limited resources to solve the power crisis, the ccloed businesses would have grown by now, would be paying taxes and would still be employing the people laid off. Then the taxes collected from the businesses could be used to construct the roads in the north and elsewhere in the future. Can those constructed roads pay the cost? Of course, a big NO.

Kwaku Bio, the guns will turn on you and your ndc party. Do you think every police man is in favour of John Mahama? Do you think every military man like what is happening in Ghana? Do you think they also don't feel the economic heat? And do you think they are fools to die for Ibrahim Mahama, Alfred Mahama, John Mahama and his family, sibblings , friends and cronies? You play the fool and those you think will protect you are the ones to kill you. Even Rawlings couldn't use all the security forces to his advantage how much more John mahama who has stolen all money meant for developing the nation. What has he, John Mahama done to benefit the security forces for them to die for him. You are an idiot, never think all the security forces are for Mahama so far as some 62,000 ndc voters voted to disapprove his presidency so are a lot of the security forces who want to see his back because of his incompetency
Aaaaaaah!!! But who will be a fool to die for incompetency? And who will be an idiot to kill for incompetency then that person might be sick in the head. Sit on your arse and think the security forces are going to help your incompetent president.

I agree with your Mr Kwabena Donkor because there's no money to fuel other power plants,how can karpower solve the problem of dumsor when the incompetent and unintelligent president Mahama,s priority is so sponsor may weather comedian friends with the taxpayers money to foreign trips,apart from seeing mr beautiful with the president in Wa,he's with the president delegation to Finland,he sent messages saying he's in Finland and ll be going to mortar,France before coming to Ghana,so the question is does president Mahama normal and knows we ve a problem with energy?does he care about industries and their inability to produce because of dumsor?what role is mr beautiful going to play for Ghana?i think the council of state is sleeping.The clergy,Imams,civil society groups and chief can not sit down whiles the taxpayers money is being spent this way,the world is watching and above all God is watching them all.This is irresponsibility at the highest order and the high time people speak out the better for this country.
