There is a place where you can be sure that you would find a representative (MP) from every part of Ghana year round gathered together to deliberate on the future and the current state of this country. Where is that? Parliament house of course. If there is such a place then how should the place and the people there be treated in the scheme of things? What priority should such a house be given in the governance of the country? If there is such a place then what kind of people should we send there and how should we assess their performance?

you have the nerves to go as far as IMF for loans and none of these wise leaders have been able to bring into play what is the best way to solve this electrification problems. This power rationing coupled with intermittent power curtailment is not immediate but remote. When we talk of civilization in a particular country it includes amenities and most amenities are derived from electricity..yet our stupid leaders have forever remained silent spectators to such deplorable situation for far too long why? all they care about is their self seeking interest not giving a damn to other citizens and why should it be so? Every leader takes advantage of the little loop hole to steal from the tax payers. Drugs drugs drugs which is the major occupation currently going on in the country has also overtaken Colombia which was once considered No.1 in drug trafficking.Sometimes is a shame when your hear such depressing news from a country we all love. I hope one smart ass will heighten on this and let the the so called president help with power situation rather than dealing and focusing on stupid irrelevant stuff.

The VRA needs to take Private Loans to bolster its operation. Business in Ghana is suffering because of the inability of the VRA to make bold decisions. Whatever these loans are meant for,there is no reason to shut down any part of the working turbines because of inflow levels not being met. The OUTFLOW can be corralled into reservoirs, and be reused to maintain the level needed to efficiently keep the production going. I hope some of these loans will be geared into building such RESERVOIRS. Long live Ghana.

The decision by the VRA to go to the market to raise funds to invesst in electricity production is the right one. ALL UTILITIES SHOULD GO PRIVATE AS WE HAVE IN UNITED KINGDOM AND OTHER WESTERN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES AND THINGS WILL BE FINE FOR THE LONG SUFFERING GHANAIANS. GOVERNMENT SHOULD NEVER GET INVOLVED IN THE PROVISION OF SERVICES !!!! GHANAIANS WILL NOT PAY THE BILLS BECAUSE IT IS GOVERNMENT PROPERTY AND THE EMPLOYEES WILL NOT LOOK AFTER THE COMPANY AND ITS ASSETS PROPERLY BECAUSE IT IS GOVERNMENT PROPERTY !!! JUST LIKE GHANA AIRWAYS, BLACK STAR LINE, GIHHOC, GNTC, ETC ETC. GO PRIVATE --- IT WILL BE EXPENSIVE FOR THE CONSUMERS BUT THE LIGHTS WILL COME. SAME FOR WATER ALSO.

I agree with you to some point,money is not VRA's main problem and I believe the Mgt is exploiting the current power situation. What needs to be done is the Ministry of Power must first de- regulate the power sector, VRA can then be floated on the GSE and the we can then see the Board holding the Mgt to account on behalf of the shareholders.

Why even write this article. It has lots of dollar figures but no mention of the current power generation capacity and the gap/shortfall. Moreover, it is of little real value other than to complain of the current situation
