“Expressing frustrations on Twitter alone may not suffice! Remember when you organized a vigil against the power outages during Mahama’s administration? What’s hindering you from taking similar action now?”
@king_renfred said:
“The hospital management can’t get a power plant. Should we shout at the government all the time. I get that the light outs thing is a menace. But those managing these hospitals should stop throwing pity comments at us and fix the issue. Buy a plant for your sensitive areas.”

“So what are the leaders telling the future generation newly born and yet unborn if this is their initial experience of the country they’re born into… #DUMSORMUSTSTOP.”
