Government has announced an official end to the four-year long load shedding exercise which plagued the country.
In a statement signed by the head of Public Affairs of the Ministry of Power Kweku Sersah-Johnson, Wednesday, government thanked Ghanaians for their patience during the difficult times.
The announcement comes two days before the January 1 2016 deadline given by the Power Minister Dr Kwabena Donkor.
He had vowed to resign if the perennial power crisis continued after the end of the year.
It appears however that government has resolved the crisis.
The following is the full statement;

The Ministry takes this opportunity to express its profound gratitude and appreciation to the entire citizenry and residents of Ghana for their forbearance and understanding during those difficult times.
The Ministry and its Agencies wish to assure the public that it shall continue to pursue policies and programs to consolidate the gains so far made in the generation and transmission of Electricity for the country.
