Sulemana Braimah, Executive Director of the Media Foundation for the West Africa, (MFWA) has charged government to quit looting the state if they want the Ghanaian people to have faith in paying taxes.
According to him Ghanaians have over the years paid all manner of taxes to enable the government embark on developmental projects. However, he added, there is a general sense that the taxes are not being utilized properly.
His comments come after the introduction of some new taxes in the 2021 budget statement.
“What the public detest is not the paying of taxes. What they detest is the looting of the taxes they pay,” he tweeted.
