The lady with a charming voice on radio, Doreen
Andoh, host of Joy Fm’s mid-morning show,
Cosmopolitan Mix, has become the latest celebrity
to add her voice to the growing complaints over the
erratic supply of electricity in the country.
Doreen has said the current situation has been
giving her “high blood pressure.”
She told her listeners on Monday that she had not
had electricity for three days with absolutely no
explanation from the power suppliers.
“…Let’s not deal with ECG because it does get my
high blood pressure on,” Doreen added.
“Try to think positive at least, try to stay right. So
definitely we take you through an exciting morning,
we inspire, we educate and we entertain.

Thinking positive isn’t about expecting the best to
happen every time but accepting that whatever that
happened is the best for this moment,” she further
said when she started her programme on Monday.
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has now
started implementing a 24-hour power rationing
plan. Under the new schedule, customers are
expected to experience 24 hours power outage
(lights off), popularly called ‘dumsor’ in the local
parlance, and have power restored for the next 12
hours.
It is the first time in the country’s history that
people have to experience power outage for as long
a period as 24 hours and also the longest period of
load shedding – since May 2012 to date.
