What next after the demonstration
How can you impose a 10% tax on betting, 15% tax on electricity and between ¢150 - ¢300 on emissions tax in this economy? How insensitive can you be!
They will let Dampare boys beat you wae
This is a worthy cause worth supporting. This NPP Govt of Akuffo Addo/Bawumia has indeed taken Ghanaians for granted for far too long
The 15% VAT Tax is just too high. People are not paid high enough and many families can hardly afford 3 meals a day for themselves and their families. This will make people steal. Let us tax the people what they can afford to ...

Useless. Tell your workers to come to work on time and stop working lotto in the office. They should stop collecting bribes
Please be sensitive a little: try commuting to work via trotro from some of the places we live to work.
With NPP under Tyrant Akufo Addo and Akyeam Mafia's everything is possible. I pray we don't see another fiasco like the case between Wuntumi and Kumasi Traditional Council. They will use the stolen money to buy the Trade Unio ...
