In a video on X, the lady said she does not see the reason many people are complaining about power outages popularly called dumsor.

"Ghanaians, especially NPP members, are hypocrites. Do they want to tell us that Ghana never experienced any power outages during the NPP’s tenure in office? When the light goes off once in John Mahama’s era you are shouting ‘dumsor is back.’ Can you people say that there was never dumsor during Nana Akufo-Addo’s eight years in power? Ghanaians have a problem”

“During the NPP administration we lost babies at the Tema General hospital due to power outages, but today the NPP think they have the moral right to criticize the current government whiles they are finding how to resolve the problem they the NPP left behind in the first place. It sad. If this is not pure malevolence what else is it.”
