Finance Minister, Cassiel Ato Forson has expressed worry over the country's energy sector which is grappling with financial burden.
He cites the need for the government to cough up a staggering $1.1 billion in 2025 to settle payments to ENI alone, covering monthly invoices, LC replenishments, and outstanding arrears as one of the challenges that gives him sleepless nights.
The Minister in a post shared via social media indicated that "for far too long, critical obligations were pushed aside, leaving us with a broken system that now demands urgent and painful corrections".
Regardless of the challenges, he has assured the people of Ghana that the government will not relinquish its responsibilities like it was done in the past but will be "committed to stabilizing the sector, clearing the debts we inherited, and ensuring Ghana's energy future is no longer crippled by poor decisions of the past'.
