In a social media video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the staunch supporter of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) expressed frustrations with the persistent, irregular and unpredictable electric power outages, commonly known as Dumsor in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.
Sharing his concerns, Appiah Stadium knelt and begged John Abdulai Jinapor to find permanent solutions to end the power crisis to help President John Dramani Mahama succeed during his second tenure as the head of the country.
He explained that the Energy Minister's failure to solve the power crisis would negatively impact President Mahama's reputation and cause major issues throughout his term.
Honourable John Abdulai Jinapor later left the staunch NDC supporter and headed to a building complex, where he met the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene.

Appiah Stadium's plea to the Energy Minister comes amid ongoing unstable power supply across multiple regions in the country.
Honourable John Jinapor recently dismissed calls for a load-shedding timetable amid recent consistent power cuts and insisted that the country was not shedding any power.
He told the press on March 7 that Ghana was even exporting approximately 300 megawatts of electricity to neighbouring countries.
The Member of Parliament for the Yapei-Kusawgu constituency had previously shared that the country was on the verge of facing a serious energy crisis in the first few days after President John Dramani Mahama was sworn into office with Vice President Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang at the Black Star Square on January 7, 2025.
