Ghana’s Parliament experienced a power cut due to a $1.8 million debt, causing an interruption during a debate on the president’s State of the Nation speech. The sudden outage was eventually resolved when a generator kicked in to restore electricity to the building.
This incident highlights the ongoing challenges faced by Ghana in ensuring reliable power supply. The country has been plagued by frequent power outages in the past, affecting businesses, households, and now even the functioning of the government.
It is crucial for Ghana to address its debt issues and invest in infrastructure to prevent such disruptions in the future. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of a stable and secure power supply for the smooth functioning of the country’s institutions.
As Ghana continues to work towards economic development and growth, addressing the issue of power supply must be a top priority. The government and relevant stakeholders must work together to find sustainable solutions to ensure uninterrupted power for all sectors of society.
