The Member of Parliament for Builsa South Dr. Clement Apaak has described that the implementation of the controversial E-levy wouldn’t have materialized if Ghana were a truly democratic state following the pending case at the Supreme Court challenging the it implementation.
Dr. Apaak in a statement went hard on the President for what he described as “reckless and unbridled impunity”
To him, Ghana’s democracy has been perverted to the point that the President has become the law, the process, and the procedure.
“Unfortunately, our democracy has been so perverted, to the extent that the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government is the law, the process, and procedure.
The levels of reckless and unbridled impunity we are witnessing under the so-called legal luminary cum human rights lawyer President is unprecedented in the history of our Republic.”
Find the full statement below:
KILLER E-levy Update – The obnoxious, regressive, unjustified, extortion scheme called E-levy is being implemented as of today by the GRA on behalf of government.
In any true and proper democracy, where the rule of law works, this should not be happening. If not, how dare the GRA overlook the processes in court and go ahead to tax momo.
Unfortunately, our democracy has been so perverted, to the extent that the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government is the law, the process, and procedure.
The levels of reckless and unbridled impunity we are witnessing under the so-called legal luminary cum human rights lawyer President is unprecedented in the history of our Republic.
Surely, the coming NDC government, under the leadership of John Dramani Mahama, will repeal the obnoxious E-monster within 100 days upon assumption of office.
In Solidarity,
Dr. Clement Apaak
M.P, Builsa South
