The President of the Ghana Journalists Association, Albert Kwabena Dwumfour, is demanding immediate action to address the widespread malfunctioning of streetlights across the country.

According to him, the poor state of street lighting, particularly at night, poses serious risks to pedestrians and drivers alike, contributing to road accidents and other safety hazards.

Speaking to the media on Thursday, March 13, 2025, Dwumfour, urged relevant authorities to prioritize repairs and improvements to prevent further loss of life. "In line with our commitment to using our periodic news conference updates to address at least one national issue in Ghana, we turn our attention to the absence of streetlights on major roads across the country.

The lack of proper lighting on our roads at night has become a significant threat to life.
