A young Ghanaian entrepreneur has shared her devastating experience with the ongoing power outages, known locally as dumsor, which have caused significant losses to her chocolate drink business.
In a video posted on her official TikTok page, the young woman showcased the aftermath of the power cuts, revealing chocolate drinks meant for sale that had gone bad. Visibly disheartened, she was seen pouring out the spoilt beverages, which she disclosed were valued at approximately GHS 1,000.
According to her, the frequent and unpredictable power outages have made it difficult to preserve her products, directly impacting her livelihood. The loss represents a major financial setback, highlighting the broader economic challenges small business owners face during Ghana’s persistent power crisis.
Her story has since resonated with many social media users, who expressed concern over how dumsor continues to disrupt small-scale businesses. Some commenters also called for sustainable solutions to Ghana’s power issues to prevent further losses among local entrepreneurs who rely on stable electricity for their operations.
