Private legal practitioner, Mr. Kwame Jantuah has said that former President John Dramani Mahama spoke a bit earlier as he believes Mr. Mahama rushed in making a promise to scrap the electronic levy if the National Democratic Congress (NDC) wins the next elections in 2024.
To him, Mr. Mahama who was the presidential candidate for the NDC in the 2020 elections spoke as though the NDC will win the elections both the Presidential and Majority in Parliament.
Speaking in an interview on TV3, Mr. Kwame Jantuah made this assertion
“I don’t know whether he knows what the 2024 elections is going to turn out to be. It is not an executive decision to repeal the e-levy, it is parliament. If you don’t have majority in Parliament how do you repeal it?
“In terms of his comments that they will repeal it, it depends on Parliament. He spoke a little too soon,” he stated.
