In a call on the Energy Minister, Otumfuo charged Matthew Opoku Prempeh to permanently solve the power outages in the Ashanti Region

Speaking during his courtesy call on the Asantehene, the Energy Minister explained that the power cut in the Region is as a result of a fallen telecom mast that collapsed two towers belonging to the Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo) last month.

He assured Otumfuo that his outfit, the Energy Ministry is working with GRIDCo to resolve the problem as a matter of urgency.

“We are working assiduously on the GRIDCo lines that have fallen. We cannot lie to you, we are asking you to support us with your prayer and love, I have nowhere to go, I won’t sit idle for power in Kumasi to be toyed with. We have just encountered difficulty, but soon, it will all be resolved,” Matthew Opoku Prempeh said.
