The Paramount Chief of the Manya Krobo Traditional Area, Nene Sakite, says the darkness residents are experiencing for the past 12 days is unacceptable.
He said livelihoods are being lost while essential service providers struggle to store drugs and vaccines.
Addressing the media at his palace, Nene Sakite said the past couple of weeks, have been difficult, a development which bothers him.
Nene Sakite, who noted the cause of darkness is as a result of threats by some people at Manya Kpongunor, cautioned residents to desist from threatening staff of the Electricity Company of Ghana.
He pointed out that the recent cutting of power poles was unacceptable, adding that intimidating people who come to fix their light is a threat to Ghana’s democracy which must stop in earnest.
Meanwhile, some families in the Yilo and Manya Krobo municipalities say operators of mortuaries are asking them to come for the remains of their loved ones.
The bodies are said to be decomposing in the wake of the community-wide power cut.
