The constant and long periods of power outages that we are experiencing on the Essequibo Coast is cause to be very concerned. The situation, at the time of writing has prevailed for the better part of two weeks. The advisory through the various channels, is most times inaccurate and cannot be relied on. The financial losses, the inconvenience and discomfort caused, maybe by the lack of foresight, demonstrated by the power that be is great.
For decades, we have been reading about the millions and millions of dollars requested and injected by the Management for the extension, development and maintenance of the Guyana Power and Light, and the legitimate expectations were that these situation the residents of this region is experiencing, particularly the southern half, would have been a thing of the past. Time has proven us to be wrong. It is correct to say that G.P.L. has over the years did a lot of extension works throughout the country; it is equally correct to say that the maintenance aspect of their work is questionable, hence the unreliability of service. In a nutshell, they have failed to meet the growing demands for service. The residents of Region 2 much to our credit, are known to be hospitable and passive but they are times when we say enough is enough.
