NPP must apologize for energy sector mess, not criticise dumsor levy — Appiah Danquah

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has been asked to stop its criticism and planned demonstration over the newly introduced dumsor levy and rather apologise to Ghanaians.

A leading communicator of the Movement for Change, Andrew Appiah Danquah, made this call, accusing the NPP of trying to divert attention from its mismanagement of the energy sector.

This follows the NPP’s intensified pressure on the government to reverse what it describes as a “wicked” levy and a betrayal of the trust of voters who gave the NDC a mandate in the 2024 general elections.

Speaking on TV3’s New Day on Monday, June 9, Mr. Appiah Danquah called on government to commission a thorough audit of the energy sector and ensure that individuals whose actions have contributed to its current crisis are held accountable.

“Ghanaians must open their eyes. We should not allow the NPP to divert the issues again. When you look at the facts, the NPP should not even have the moral right to stage a demonstration. They should rather put their hands on their heads and beg,” he said.

He added, “Ghanaians must push this government for proper accountability. Anyone who played a role in this criminal enterprise that brought the sector to this point must be punished.”

According to him, the NPP collected enough money under the Energy Sector Levy Act to clear debts but chose to pursue policies that worsened the situation.

“You create an act to collect money for a purpose. You get the money and still go on an agenda that deepens the debt. That’s unacceptable,” he said.

Mr. Appiah Danquah also criticised the NPP for failing to implement key recommendations under the World Bank-supported Energy Sector Recovery Programme.

“The programme gave several recommendations. The NPP fundamentally failed to implement them. Now we are facing the consequences. The corruption in ECG is alarming. A serious audit must be done, and people must be held accountable,” he stressed.
