Member
of Parliament for Ablekuma West, Ursula Owusu has downplayed the
relevance of the Public Utility and Regulatory Commission (PURC),
labeling the Commission as "useless and defunct."
Contributing to
a panel discussion programme on Oman FM, Hon. Ursula Owusu was of a
strong view that the PURC is only doing the bidding of government; a
reason why they astronomically increased the tariffs on electricity and
water services in the country.
According to her, the PURC is being "remote controlled" by government.
Due
to this, the PURC seems to shirk its official duties and has become
inconsiderate in their operations towards the Ghanaian citizenry.
Appealing
to the Commission to consider the plight of Ghanaians, Hon. Ursula
Owusu stressed that it has since "proved that they are a totally
useless, defunct organization because they will do their master’s
bidding. And it doesn’t matter which government is in power; they have a
duty of care to the Ghanaian people.” |
