Alex Mould, the former CEO of the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC), has come under fire following comments he made about the country’s persistent electricity supply issues, commonly referred to as dumsor. His statements, shared in a recent interview, criticized the government’s approach to managing the energy crisis, which has sparked considerable backlash on social media. Critics argue that Mould’s comments are politically motivated and question his role in addressing the issue during his time in public office.
The public debate has intensified, with many Ghanaians voicing frustration over the ongoing challenges with electricity reliability and affordability. Supporters of Mould, however, see his comments as a necessary critique aimed at spurring government action toward a more sustainable solution.
