President John Mahama has announced his acceptance of the Power Minister’s resignation.

News of his resignation hit the media on Thursday after weeks of pressure from citizens for him to vacate his post.

This was due to his failure to end the three-year energy crisis by close of 2015 as promised.

In a two paragraph statement, the President indicated that he thanked D​r. Kwabena Donkor (MP) for his services as the pioneer M​inister for the Ministry of Power which was carved out of the then Ministry of Energy and Petroleum.
