Organizers and patrons of the dumsor vigil in Kumasi have disclosed plans to bring the protest to the capital Accra after the successful edition in the Garden City.
Henry Osei Akoto, one of the leaders of the protest, explaining the reason behind the decision to replicate the vigil that took place in Kumasi on April 17, 2024, said it is not enough to have only Kumasi featured.
According to him, moving the vigil around is meant to mount further pressure on the government and to bring its attention to the debilitating effects of the power outages on businesses and livelihoods.
The group, he said, will soon mobilize Ghanaians to protest against the erratic power supply commonly known as Dumsor.
“We will mobilize Ghanaians on the streets soon if you don’t resolve dumsor; the inconveniences are just too much.“You promised Ghanaians you were going to give us an uninterrupted power supply; see where you’ve brought us,” he said.
The Dumsor Vigil is organized by Ashanti Democrats, led by Jerry James Sukkah.
The date for the Accra version is yet to be announced.
