I thought ECG was so profitable that Akuffo Addo and Bawumia were ordering the PURC to reduce the tariff some years ago. What has happened? What politics of deceit can do

They want to chop everything before leaving govt. So they'll rundown even essential utilities. Even if govt changes, the thieves will find refuge in the terribly compromised courts. Only a coup d'etat can bring the thieves to book and deter those who are waiting on the reserve bench for their turn to plunder.

A man called Kojo Poku who describes himself as Bawumia person on energy is talking plenty english which do not make sense.

PURC has written and he's still blaming the past administration after how many years in office?

They think they know, yet very empty and sound comical. Any wonder?

It is true that this situation requires the need for introspection beyond tariff adjustment.

The exhaustibles have depletion rent which increases with depletion. When businesses located in the cedi region design to conduct business in dollars, the exchange rate cannot be arrested.

The wind does not send invoices let alone dollar ones and the sun does not listen to political leaders.

The emphasis therefore must be on cost reduction to make power affordable. Inability to afford is the roof cause of theft and illegal connection.

Engineers need to innovate and drive costs down while governement regulate to ensure normal profits not ripoffs.
