President John Dramani Mahama has blamed the current energy crisis in the country on the increasing mobile phone usage in Ghana.
The President addressing Ghanaian community in Gambia where he is on a state visit said the number of mobile phones in the country supersedes the total population in Ghana hence taking a huge toll on the meager megawatts of power in the country.
“Ghana’s population is 25 million but statistics indicates that mobile phone lines in Ghana is over 27 million and these phones are charged every night and this is one of the causes of the load shedding…,” he said.
