In a bold move, the Office of the President has issued a decisive public notice, announcing the immediate dissolution of the boards of directors for both the Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority (EDSA) and the Electricity Generation and Transmission Company (EGTC).
The official statement released by the Office of the President emphasized that this swift action has been taken with immediate effect, signaling a significant shake-up in the country’s energy landscape.
This development follows closely on the heels of the President’s recent announcement regarding his decision to assume direct control of the Ministry of Energy, marking a pivotal moment in the government’s strategy to address pressing issues within the sector.
Just last week, the President made headlines by revealing his intention to take direct control of the Ministry of Energy, a decision prompted by the resignation of the Energy Minister, Alhaji Kanja Sesay.
The departure of Sesay appears to have catalyzed a cascade of strategic adjustments within the energy sphere, ultimately leading to the dissolution of the boards of both EDSA and EGTC.
As the nation grapples with the implications of these sweeping changes, all eyes are now on the President as he steers the course towards a new era in energy governance.
