As opposed to his predecessor who flatly refused to defend the popular 2016 campaign comments in which the after that New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential candidate, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo suggested that will Ghanaians were suffering in the middle of abundance, thus “Yete Sika So Nso Ekom Sobre Yen”, the Member of Parliament(MP) for Ejisu and Mouthpiece Minister for Finance, Doctor John Ampontuah Kumah offers validated the remarks. It could be recalled that a former Ejisu MP and former Mouthpiece Roads and Highways Ressortchef (umgangssprachlich), Ashanti Regional NPP Chief hopeful, Hon. Kwabena Owusu Aduomi while speaking within an interview with Kumasi-Based Oyerepa TV last month mentioned he was unable to protect what the president had stated. “I didn’t make that will statement so I can’t protect it. Every politician has got the basis of making a remark, so when you get Akufo-Addo inside your studio ask him that will question, but me Aduomi, I can’t defend it”, he said in response to the particular recent backlash from a portion of Ghanaians about the current economy being superintended by Chief executive Akufo-Addo and the New Devoted Party (NPP) Government. Yet Dr . John Ampontuah Kumah while speaking in an job interview with Kumasi-based Hello FM monitored by MyNewsGh. Possuindo on Tuesday morning offered justification for the President’s comments and went on to show the reason why it still holds true, in the defense of the proposed E-levy policy. “It is true that individuals are sitting on cash (Yete Sika So) since President Akufo-Addo said; we might not be able to raise each one of these revenues if we were simply no sitting on money like a country. There would be no advantage to us as Ghanaians if we are unable to send our children to school after increasing revenue. The NDC emerged and canceled the teachers’ allowance, canceled the medical training allowances and mentioned it was impossible to put into action the Free SHS plan all because they said there was clearly no money; but the truth is that we have cash and this government has shown it in the last five years”, Dr John Kumah described. The government is seeking to increase an estimated GHS 6. nine billion in taxes each year from the proposed electronic dealings levy to augment its costs in road infrastructure plus job creation. But the passing of the bill which has once more been withdrawn from Parliament by the Finance Minister, Tobey maguire Ofori-Atta has divided the particular Ghanaian public in rule and opinions. The Group NDC MPs in Parliament have always trumpeted their particular outright opposition to the costs in any form, but the authorities has so far made the concession of 0. 5% on the earlier proposed one 75% on mobile cash transfers exceeding GHS one hundred. Already, the telecommunication businesses that charge a charge of 1% on just about all mobile money transactions have got agreed to a concession associated with 0. 5%.
