After enduring weeks of darkness and disruption, residents of Aboso, Bogoso and Huni Valley can now heave a sigh of relief, as electricity has finally been restored to their communities.
The return of power follows the intervention of the Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Robert Wisdom Cudjoe, who procured three distribution transformers to replace faulty ones that had plunged parts of the municipality into prolonged outages.
On Wednesday, March 18, 2026 the District Chief Executive, Matthew Ayeh, accompanied the MP to officially present the 200kVA transformers to the Electricity Company of Ghana in Tarkwa and Bogoso for installation.
Today, the impact of that intervention is evident. The lights are back, businesses are reopening at full capacity and households are gradually returning to normal routine, after nearly two and a half months without electricity.
For many residents, the restoration goes beyond convenience. Cold store operators can now preserve their goods, food vendors are reducing losses and students once again have reliable lighting to study at night.
Dr. Matthew Ayeh has since commended the MP for what he described as a compassionate and timely response to the plight of the people, emphasizing that such leadership is critical in addressing urgent community needs.
The District Chief Executive noted that the collaboration between the Assembly and the MP continues to drive development across the municipality, assuring residents of their commitment to improving living conditions.
The restoration of power marks a significant turning point for the affected communities, one that not only brings light back into homes, but also renews hope and economic activity.
With electricity flowing once again, the message from local leadership remains clear – unity and collective efforts are key to sustaining development in the area.
