The Chamber of Petroleum Consumers (COPEC) has expressed deep concern over what it describes as the government's blatant mismanagement and corruption within the power sector-insisting that ordinary Ghanaians, especially petroleum consumers, must not be made to pay for the consequences through unjust levies.
In a fiery interview with Joy Business, Executive Secretary of COPEC, Duncan Amoah, criticized the government's approach to resolving the ballooning power sector debt, stating unequivocally that the situation was not a mystery but a result of longstanding systemic failures. "The power sector debt is not out of vacuum.
Something led to the accumulation of the debt.
The transmission losses is one, poor revenue generation and collection, is two, and the use of the revenue is three," he said.
