The Chief Executive Officer of the country's power generation company - GRIDCo, William Amuna has stepped down.

Speaking to the media on the development, Mr. Amuna expressed the optimism that under his leadership, GDRICo improved power stability in the country following the two year crisis in the sector.

In his own words, “We’ve all been witnesses to the power situation during the period but we’ve been able to work so hard and I believe the system has been much better”.

Although he declined to say what his next move will be, he expressed his willingnmess to support the power sector development in the country with his wealth of experience.

“I am going to take some rest for a month or two and I will think through with my family to see what I am going to do next. Definitely, once I have the knowledge in the industry, I am willing to share my knowledge with other people. I am a Ghanaian and I would want to see the progress of this country,” he said.
