Bernard Allotey Jacobs has asked President Nana Akufo-Addo to take punitive actions against the management of the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) over electricity challenges in the country.
GRIDCo has informed the public of its intention to cut power supply to some parts of the country.
The electricity transmission company claims the company is undertaking maintenance on some power lines, hence resulting in the current intermittent power supply.
The company has pleaded with Ghanaians to endure the dark for months till the company finishes its maintenance.
But there are some people who don t believe GRIDCo.
Critics of the company and some Ghanaians have argued that the GRIDCo s reasons are mere rhetorics.
