Elections have consequences! Just look at what President @JDMahama, Hon. Dr. @JohnJinapor and @EdmondKombat_, Esq. have achieved at @TemaOilrefinery in less than two years! This is what purposeful leadership looks like. Leadership!

Eventually, I came to a conclusion that people were just not ready and willing for TOR to be efficient and effective. It made no sense that consistently, Management/Govt refused and or failed to consider proposals that in some cases didn’t need TOR to invest even a cedi.

NPP Criticises Government's 24-hour Economy and New Economy: "It's not everything the Minority says that is grounded, so it's not everything they will say that will ask me. It's not fair to call me and nearly channel the Minority." - Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Minister for Government Communications tells Keminni Amanor #DailyBrief #TV3GH

The NPP sent two of their strongest communicators to face Julius Kwame Anthony. Two against one, yet Julius made it look like a group assignment where the other two forgot to study. 😂😂🔥

Transforming the power sector! #Reset #MahamaThePresident
They threaten me to switch off the light but plans to build 500MW plant for us. Listen to how President Mahama responded to investors while announcing Ghana’s plan to construct a 1,200MW gas-fired, self-funded, thermal plant.

Today, the Government of Ghana signed two Memoranda of Understanding with ENI Ghana, Vitol Upstream Tano Ltd (Vitol), and GNPC for the offshore acreages GH WB 3 and GH WB 8 in the Tano Basin. This milestone reflects the impact of the upstream reforms being pursued under the leadership of H.E. President John Dramani Mahama to strengthen Ghana’s petroleum sector, attract responsible investment and unlock our hydrocarbon potential.

Indeed, Politics may be a complex business! When I heard Hon. Kojo Oppong Nkrumah and some members of the NPP criticising the Chief Justice for visiting state institutions, I couldn’t help but wonder: where were they when similar thing happened under their watch? Were they raising these same concerns then?

Thank you for recognising these important steps. Transparency, accountability and access to reliable information remain key priorities for the Ministry under the leadership of Hon. Dr. Jinapor. We welcome constructive feedback as we work to build greater confidence and accountability in Ghana’s energy sector.
Ghana’s Energy Ministry is starting to show a couple of things on its website that make me happy, and they are important for transparency in the power sector. The first is information on daily power generation. How much power is being generated each day? That’s important for public education and for helping us determine whether power outages are the result of generation issues or something else. We have asked for that for years! The second is information on key details of power purchase agreements (PPAs). Publishing details of these agreements, including key financial terms and tariff structures, is very important for transparency in the power sector. Both features look like works in progress for now, but overall, they are headed in the right direction towards greater transparency in the power sector.

Update on power system disturbance!
Power supply has already been restored to some affected areas, and restoration efforts are progressing steadily to ensure that supply is restored to all remaining affected customers as quickly and safely as possible.

Lawyer, I acknowledge the concern. The major challenge is that despite our continued installation and rehabilitation of streetlights, they are repeatedly stolen shortly after installation. The persistent theft and vandalism of streetlights and their components really undermine every effort to enhance visibility and improve public safety. We are working closely with the security services to address the theft and protect these infrastructure.
It really bothers me that human lives mean nothing to us. What will it take to fix streetlights on our roads?? It’s frustrating oo smh
