It would’ve been folly for Bawumia to oppose E-levy after its implementation – Oppong Nkrumah

The Vice Chairman of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Manifesto Committee, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has come to the defense of the party’s flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, after his recent pledge to abolish the E-Levy.

During the NPP’s manifesto launch in Takoradi on Sunday, Dr. Bawumia outlined plans for significant tax reforms, including scrapping the E-Levy and betting tax should he win the upcoming general election.

Criticism from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) quickly followed, with many questioning why Dr. Bawumia, who currently serves as Vice President, had not pushed for the removal of the E-Levy.

In response, Mr Oppong Nkrumah, clarified that Dr. Bawumia had initially opposed taxing digital payments before the E-Levy was introduced.
