Not really Ghana doesn't need nuclear energy. Extremely capital intensive plus what are they going to do with all the nuclear waste. Ghana should. Focus on renewable energy

Is it not doing both using both whilst working on another is the most efficient move for Ghanas long term success as a country?

@Haha you are 100% correct with your concerns, exactly as I am thinking. Here we are as a country where maintenance culture is non existent and we want to go nuclear? For goodness sake look at galamsay polluting our wates and soil whilst successive governments have stood by and essentially done nothing proactive and imagine an emergency with Nuclear waste. Russia is also a rogue state run by a mafia boss Putin and I wouldn't trust anything they put forward in a contract. We are really stupid if we progress this.....

In doing so the barge will be replaced and the other towed away to Russia for maintenance and waste disposal. Fact is nuclear energy is far less expensive than the power barge we currently have which uses diesel or gas to operate.

Oh my God! If this news is true, Dr Nkrumah will be smiling in his grave. Russia started the blueprint feasibility studies of this nuclear power and USA sabotaged it, I was so disheartened to hear the bomb throwers and nation wreckers wanted to give this infrastructure the same Divided snakes of America who sabotaged it. I’m so happy to hear and if this is true, I will be happy forever.

I don't believe these idiots. Nuclear power is not commercial viable in any country in the world. Suppose we can feed the radioactive waste to the school kids.

Collaborate with key and internationally respected partners. Not with Warlike countries.
In anyway big brother is wa5ching, and will impose huge tariff to abort the project.
Even Europeans have been asked to stop buying Russian oil of face massive tariffs. How about poor Ghana associating with Russia
Dr. Sobagje be a good science advisor, not a politician.

Please tell Russia to stop the massacre in Ukraine. Putin is a disgrace. His days are numbered. He has no sense of shame. We need peace throughout the world. Thank you.

Infact we are a country of jokers. Just compare what you are telling us Mr director to what Ethiopia has done. Construction of one of the biggest dams in the world (The Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam). This is what we call development. You are still talking about 100 mw of an outmoded nuclear plant on us. You people need lashes!
