Mahama cautioned against populism, pointing to the consequences of eliminating the betting tax, e-levy, and other measures

John Dramani Mahama’s targeted tariffs have drawn criticism from Yaw Nsarkoh, the former executive vice president of Unilever Global Markets. John Dramani Mahama and his National Democratic Congress (NDC) made a social pact with Ghanaians before to being elected president. The previous president, who is currently the president-elect, promised the young people in the aforementioned contract that he would abolish the betting tax within his first ninety days in office. He promised Ghanaians that the e-levy, COVID-19, and emissions levy will be eliminated in addition to the betting tax.
