For many who complained, power has not been stable in their areas these and they were wondering if ‘dumsor’, the erratic power situation which crippled the nation a few years ago, is back.
But GRIDCo has stated the nationwide power outage is as a result of a temporal challenge they are facing at the moment.
In a statement sighted by Ghanaarticles.com, GRIDCo explained that a challenge in the power system which happened at about 2:01 pm has led to a total shutdown of the system.
It is this shutdown that has “led to the interruption of power supply to all parts of the country.”
