E-Levy Is Not Bad But…..- Sarkodie Breaks Silence On E-Levy Debate

Ghanaian rapper, Michael Owusu Addo, professionally known as Sarkodie has finally broken his silence on the electronic levy debate.

The topic of the implementation of E-levy has been a topic of discussion in parliament and Ghana as a whole. The finance minister, during the reading of the 2022 Budget disclosed that the government has introduced the payment of e-levy on transactions in order to help stabilize the country’s economy.

A fan of the rapper questioned Sarkodie on what he thinks about the implementation of E-levy. He questioned, “@sarkodie Please i want to know what you think about the E-Levy, you have been quiet on it your paddies are speaking their minds ooo“.

Sarkodie however replied to the fan disclosing that he pays taxes to the government whenever he travels outside the country because he knows the monies collected as taxes are being used judiciously.

However, he pointed out that most Ghanaians are against e-levy because the government does not use the taxes collected judiciously and for developmental projects, hence the anger and refusal to pay the levy.

In his words, “I pay a lot of taxes outside and I don’t complain because I’m using avenues they made available to make ( it’s only right ) it’s not same here and that’s why we complain not because the “E Levy” is bad . When you broke, a harmless “good morning “ can sound like a tease“.
