Dr. Clement Apaak, Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa South, has recommended President Akufo-Addo not to try to reintroduce the electronic transactions levy (E-levy) bill in Parliament.
He told the Akufo-Addo government, which is conducting a retreat at the Peduase Lodge in Aburi, that the Minority will vote against reinstating the E-Levy in the law-making chamber.
In a statement, he advised the government officials gathered at Peduase to argue “amongst themselves the best IMF proposal that will rescue the nation and provide policy credibility.”
Below Is The Statement:
Gov’t Crisis Retreat – What is there to debate? KILLER E-LEVY is not an option. They are better off spending their retreat time at Peduase debating amongst themselves the best IMF programme that will rescue the nation and give POLICY credibility.
With seeking the support of the IMF, they have the mandate, with KILLER E-LEVY, they don’t. Let no one deceive them at Peduase, it is still 137 No votes against E-levy any day it comes to the floor of Parliament resurrected, revived or resuscitated.
While at their retreat they should not forget that SONA, a constitutional obligation, is yet to be fulfilled. In fact, from 2017 to 2021 NADAA presented SONA in the month of February as did his predecessors. It is clear that NADAA will have the embarrassing record of NOT presenting SONA in February in the history of the 4th Republic.
Truth Stands!
Dr. Clement Abas Apaak
M.P, Builsa South
