“I’m Very Happy E-Levy Has Been Approved” – President Akufo Addo

The E-levy has finally been authorized by Parliament, according to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

This was stated by Mr. Akufo-Addo in his State of the Nation Address (SONA) for 2022, which he gave in Parliament on March 30.

After the minority stormed out of Parliament on Tuesday, March 29, the E-levy was authorized. The bill was rejected by the minority because it was seen as harsh.

“Mr. Speaker, despite the prolonged and often fractious character of proceedings, I am pleased that the House has, at long last, found it able to pass the e-levy,” President Akufo-Addo said in his address. I think the levy will make a substantial contribution to revenue mobilization and economic management, and I appreciate the members of the House for their support in making this happen.

The path to recovery will be difficult and lengthy, Mr. Speaker, but we’ve gotten off to a strong start by admitting that we’re in a tough spot and making the tough decisions that will bring us out.

If anyone had any qualms about the need to be self-sufficient, the message has now been hammered home to us. The case for pursuing the Ghana Beyond Aid program has never been stronger.

“I have no doubt that we have what it takes to create the Ghana of our dreams. When COVID struck, I witnessed a spirit of unity and a willingness to support one another. We kept an eye out for one another.

“I witnessed the Ghanaian spirit of enterprise and ingenuity.” Our manufacturers immediately adapted their operations to create sanitizers, and our tailors demonstrated the same level of inventiveness by converting face masks into fashion items.
