The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has described as \u201ca scam\u201d, a promise by former President John Mahama to abolish the E-Levy if elected in 2024.<\/p>\n
According to the New Patriotic Party, Mahama and his NDC are no alternative in deciding a direction at the crossroads, because they cannot be trusted to move the country towards prosperity.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a press conference in Accra on Wednesday, 4th May 2022, the national communications director of the NPP, Yaw Buaben-Asamoa, said, \u201cJust like the one-time premium and the repeal of talk tax that John Mahama and his NDC promised, but failed to implement when they were in power, this promise is just a political talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn any event, can John Mahama explain the difference in his 17.5% tax on financial transactions and his manifesto pledge to impose a uniform tax on all electronic transactions? Are these measures E-Levy in disguise and does he stand by them?\u201d Asamoa asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we reflect deeply,\u201d Asamoa said, \u201cWe will accept, as the records show, that significant change to our political institutions and conduct, economic structure and management and positive social impact, has mostly happened under the NPP\u2019s watch.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMany very significant national reverses occurred under the six years of John Mahama\u2019s Presidency. He has since been rejected twice in elections. It\u2019s possible his recent address is motivated by self-preservation towards his continued leadership of the NDC into 2024, given that both insiders and external observers are writing him off,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cUnder John Mahamas\u2019 leadership, Ghana will slip backwards into chaotic incompetence. Just like his autobiography tells all, he cannot take decisions. As he says in his book, he will ride this country like a bicycle, out of control and dangerously downhill, merely hopeful of survival.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 2024 presidential election is expected to be about two choices: whether we choose to build on the significant gains so far made under President Akufo-Addo with a new presidential candidate from the NPP who comes with his or her own fresh ideas as well or to choose the candidate the NDC are threatening to bring back, John Dramani Mahama.\u201d<\/p>\n
