"For about three days since I came to Ghana, I have spent most of my time indoors. Any time I go out, it's just to the beach. So tell me why, why would I leave Nigeria, my lovely country, that has beaches and come to Ghana just for the beach," she stated.
"I'm not missing Nigeria oo like I cannot miss Nigeria. My point is: thank God I did leave Nigeria. There is light 24/7. In fact, there is light throughout," she said.

Independent power producer shuts down plant

YEN.com.gh also reported that Sunon Asoli Power shut down its plant due to the Electricity Company of Ghana failing to settle a $259 million debt.

In a statement addressing the situation in October 2024, the company said it had been left in a tight financial state and could not continue its operations.

The shutdown of Sunon Asogli's 560MW power plant has many Ghanaians convinced that load-shedding, also known as dumsor, will return.
