Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr, a Ghanaian reggae-dancehall artist popularly known as Shatta Wale has shared his view on the much talked about E-Levy. According to him, government must create measures so that the citizens won’t complain and know that they are working with the government. “Don’t work as if the country be your own. Think about the human beings when you tax.”
In a video shared by Nsafoa Media on Thursday, 4th February 2022 he said; When you tax, think about human beings. Shatta Wale asserted that tax is paid in every country but sighted American as an example where they make things affordable for poor citizens and so the people won’t complain about the taxes they pay.
Has our leaders created such a system for us? Shatta Wale quizzed. He said that when the leaders wake up they just go to parliament and just bring the thing out (E-Levy) for the people. If I were to be your mother or where where the E-Levy will affect, you might have given a second thought. Shatta added that the leaders know that it won’t affect their mothers and fathers because they have secure them financially.
The Dance Hall artist continued; you people, have you thought about your classmate Kwame? That was intelligent and couldn’t get the opportunity that you’ve gotten? That what is his parents going to do. Because Kwame never had money in school but was always the first in class. How will his parents survive if there is a decision like this? Have you thought about it? Shatta Wale emotionally asked.
