Akufo-Addo, how do you sleep at night? - Yvonne Nelson laments Tema hospital dumsor

Actress and movie producer, Yvonne Nelson has joined the growing list of public personalities lamenting the effect of rolling power blackouts on healthcare delivery.

There is a growing critique of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo-led government following a viral video of a blackout at the neonatal unit of the Tema General Hospital.

24 hours prior, a video of a blackout at the hospital went viral on social media platforms amid citizen anger at rolling power blackouts across the country.

In the video, the neonatal ward is plunged into darkness due to lack of power.

"Erratic power cut on Tuesday evening plunged the neonatal unit of Tema General Hospital into chaos, resulting in the heartbreaking loss of a newborn," the channel posted on social media on March 27, 2024.

"The neonatal unit, where infants requiring intensive care are housed, relies heavily on electricity to sustain life-saving equipment such as oxygen support and emergency care devices.

The generator intended to provide backup power for the unit is prone to shutting down when overloaded," their post added.
