Mr. Anthony Forson Jnr, the National President of the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) has reminded members of the Bar that they had a sacred duty towards society not to neglect their roles in national development.
He said this comes through paying a fair share of taxes and embarking on practices that will aid clients and not embark on practices that will aid dubious evasion and unholy tax avoidance schemes.
The outgoing President of the Bar, Mr. Anthony Forson Jnr, said this at their 2021 Conference held in Bolgatanga, the Upper East Regional capital.
The week-long conference was on the theme: “Ensuring an increase in revenue mobilization through taxation for accelerated national development: The role of the lawyer,” and brought together members of the GBA across the country.
Mr. Anthony Forson Jnr, the National President of the GBA expressed gratitude to President Akufo-Addo, a fully paid-up member of the GBA, “For the sustained interest he has in matters affecting the Bar, and also express our gratitude to the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.”
