QUESTION ONE – ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY
“Zambia has in the recent past witnessed an increase in economic activities
which has led to an increased energy demand. This increased demand for
energy has overshot the hydroelectric power generating capacity.
Consequently, the national power utility company, the Zambia Electricity
Supply Corporation (ZESCO) instituted nationwide load shedding schedules
that last up to 12 hours daily. This development has potentially far reaching
social and economic effects on the lives and operations of poor urban
residents and small scale business enterprises (SMEs) that routinely depend
on stable access to electricity.”
Adapted from: Umar, B.B., & Kunda-Wamuwi, C.F. (2019). Socio-Economic
effects of load shedding on poor urban households and small business
enterprises in Lusaka, Zambia. Energy and Environment Research, 9 (2), 20–9.
https://doi.org/10.5539/eer.v9n2p20 With the excerpt above as your starting
point, write an argumentative essay in which you discuss three negative
effects of load-shedding to the citizens of Southern-Africa. Your essay should
include the following discussion pointers; interruption of business activities,
medical care, and education. In addition, suggest any two solutions to
eradicate load-shedding crises in Southern-Africa.
