Following this report, Ghana's new president, John Dramani Mahama, has since responded to concerns about the looming power crisis, assuring citizens that measures are in place to prevent a recurrence of the power outages.

Despite this assurance, the news of the possible return of dumsor, a term used to describe the frequent power outages that plagued Ghana in the past, has generated mixed reactions from a section of the public.
