The Minority in Parliament has launched a scathing attack on the government over the introduction of a new 8% levy on petroleum products—equivalent to GHS 1 per litre—describing it as a betrayal of public trust and “midnight robbery.”
Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, the Minority Caucus criticised the manner in which the levy, dubbed the “Dumsor Levy”, was introduced and passed in Parliament, calling it hypocritical, deceptive, and harmful to ordinary Ghanaians.
