Gov’t should have created jobs before tax on bets – LilWin

LilWin, a stage name used by Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah, has also weighed in on the debates surrounding Ghana's recent tax on sports wagering.

On Wednesday, August 23, the actor said in an interview with Tony Best on Adwuma Mmere on Akoma FM that while he does not partake in sports betting, he will not hold it against those who do.

He believed that the majority of bettors were unemployed.

“If I were the president and knowing very well I've not created enough jobs especially for the youth, until I've created jobs for them I never would have put tax on betting.

“By creating enough jobs, you could even put 60% on betting in order to deter people from the act,” LilWin had said.
