Ghanaians have reacted to Dr Mathew Opoku’s statement that there are no power outages in Ghana contrary to what Ghanaians are experiencing on daily basis.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) officially introduced Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as “NAPO,” as the running mate to their flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for the 2024 general elections today, Tuesday, July 9, 2024.
The announcement took place at Kumasi Jubilee Park in the Ashanti Region, a stronghold of the party.
Addressing the New Patriotic Party (NPP) members present at the unveiling of Dr. Prempeh as Bawumia’s running mate in Kumasi, the president indicated that the Manhyia South MP effectively implemented the government’s flagship Free SHS program.
On the energy front, the President said the Minister successfully solved the issue of erratic power supply.
According to him, those claiming that there has been a return of the canker, known as ‘Dumsor’ are telling lies.
He further added that “yes, there have been a few occasions but he has done his best to ensure that power in our country was online.”
On the back of these, he urged the crowd at the Jubilee Park in Kumasi to rally behind the new running mate.
Reacting to this, some Ghanaians have criticized NAPO for being a worse liar than Dr Bawumia.
