President Mahama assents to amended bills to abolish Betting Tax, E-Levy and Emissions Tax

President John Dramani Mahama has signed new laws. These include the Betting Tax, E-Levy Tax, and Emissions Tax.

This action is a significant step for the National Democratic Congress (NDC). It aims to fulfill their promise to abolish these taxes. The goal is to reduce financial burdens on Ghanaians and promote economic growth.

Repealing these taxes supports the government's commitment to a better economy. It aims to create a favorable environment for businesses and individuals. Removing these levies will increase disposable income for many people.
