Actress Yvonne Nelson of Ghana has used social media to rally her countrymen once more to confront the recurring power crisis, colloquially referred to as Dumsor.
Nelson wrote an emotional statement that was posted on Twitter, expressing her serious concern about the crippling power outage issue returning and her appeal for a coordinated effort to hold the country’s leaders accountable.
In the letter to fellow Ghanaians, Nelson emphasized her track record as a proponent of constructive change, citing her leadership of the 2015 DumsorMustStop Campaign with prominent figures like Kofi Bentil from Imani Ghana, Prince David Osei, D Black, Van Vicker, Efya, Sarkodie, Barima Sidney, and DKB.
Nelson reflected on the difficulties encountered in the first campaign and underlined the necessity of another group endeavor to deal with the ongoing power issue. She pointed out that Dumsor had persisted for a long time and that it was concerning and bad for the country’s development. Nelson emphasized the nonpartisan character of the opposition to Dumsor, even if he acknowledged the changing political environment and the realignments of some individuals. She urged Ghanaians to join her in advocating for significant action to end the present power crisis. These people included volunteers, members of the legal community, and concerned individuals. The actress announced that she had invited important Imani Ghanaians, like as Kofi Bentil and Franklin Cudjoe, and asked for their cooperation in planning another DumsorMustStop Vigil. She did, however, reveal that she had not heard back from them about whether they would be interested in sponsoring another vigil.
