Convener of advocacy group \u2018Justice 4 Ghana\u2019, Bernard Mornah has stressed that action will be taken against the use of Mobile Money if government goes ahead with the implementation of the Electronic Transaction Levy (E-Levy).<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite agitations by some sections of Ghanaians and the Minority in Parliament, government through the Finance Ministry is pushing to have the controversial E-Levy approved by Parliament.<\/p>\n According to Member of Parliament MP for Nhyiaeso Constituency, Dr. Stephen Amoah, government will use every ounce of its power to ensure the levy is passed regardless of the opposition.<\/p>\n Speaking to 3FM on the back of that declaration, Bernard Mornah has emphasised that the Ghanaian people will also abandon the use of Mobile Money if the levy is implemented.<\/p>\n \u201cWe will secure our freedom from the electronic transaction levy. If parliament decides to pass it we will go the other way\u2026<\/p>\n \u201cWe chose mobile money services because it\u2019s convenient but if it\u2019s becoming expensive we\u2019ll withdraw our money from the mobile services and go back to a cash society,\u201d the Convener of \u2018Justice 4 Ghana\u2019 and renowned activists shared.<\/p>\n The E-Levy was expected to be discussed in Parliament this week when the house resumed sitting on Tuesday, January 25, 2022.<\/p>\n However, with its exclusion from the agenda of Parliament, it is now anticipated that talks between the Majority and the Minority would continue in Parliament next week instead.<\/p>\n Content created and supplied by: Pytas-Post (via Opera \n , . , .
