I did not partake in the passing of E-levy – Adwoa Safo

In a recent statement, Adwoa Safo, the Member of Parliament for Dome Kwabenya, clarified her position regarding the controversial Electronic Transaction Levy (E-levy). Despite the government's push for its implementation, she asserted that she did not participate in the parliamentary vote that led to its passage. Safo emphasized her discontent with how the E-levy was handled and expressed concerns about its potential impact on citizens.

She highlighted that many Ghanaians feel burdened by additional taxes during challenging economic times and underscored her commitment to representing their interests. Safo's comments reflect a broader discontent within segments of the population who believe that such levies could exacerbate existing financial hardships. This revelation adds another layer to ongoing debates surrounding fiscal policies in Ghana, as lawmakers grapple with balancing revenue generation against public sentiment. Her remarks may resonate with constituents who seek transparency and accountability from their representatives in navigating economic challenges while ensuring equitable taxation practices.
