The General Secretary of the opposition NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has said that the lawsuit initiated by the government against former deputy minister of finance Cassiel Ato Forson is just a ploy to whip NDC MPs in line.
Mr. Ato Forson has been charged with causing financial loss to the state over his role in the purchase of some so-called defective ambulances during his tenure as deputy finance minister.
However, NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah believes the move is just a self-serving plot by government to force through the controversial e-levy.
According to him, the Akufo-Addo government is using the fear of prison to intimidate NDC MPs into accepting the e-levy.
