    Mahama should then lay out what his administration will commit to doing on import duties for vehicles for both professional importers like car dealers and the man in the street. Tell us what you commit to removing of these t ...

    I paid 194,000.00 new Ghana cedis for my 2021 Ford F-150 truck and that’s absolutely ridiculous and wickedness to the fourth power. Akuffo Addo is the most wicked president ever come to Ghana.

    I see JM have become even better, a man that marks a line can only see how crooked the line after standing aside . JM was not perfect but by Allah he 1 million times better than Nana addo! I will vote for NDC

  • Jon 1 year ago

    Why is it cheaper to clear cars in Nigeria, Togo, Benin and other neighboring countries than Ghana? Crooks use these taxes for their personal budget. Will MAHAMA have the capacity to tackle this anomaly

  • iDISCOVERD 1 year ago

    Mahama’s 4 years was far better than the 16 years of Kuffuor, Akuffo Addo and Bawumia put together. God bless jdm and the ndc

  • Vinnie 1 year ago

    It was better when he left debts all over to be paid right? If you don't stop that Mahama nonsense.. Even Satan himself is shy to bless him.. God can only bless Mahama if he starts speaking truth and stop lying..

  • kwabena 1 year ago

    You are seriously sick in the head to even feign love for this current government. The comparison between these two governments, the gap is huge, JDM, apart from Nkrumah, no other president is even close!

  • Pelicles 1 year ago

    Mahama is the best by giving the Tema port to his friend for 35years. Those charges at the port have nothing to do with the government.

    kwabena, where are the ambulances your Mahama bought for Ghanaians?

  • nana1 1 year ago

    You were young at Kuffour Regime and you don't travel this Akuffo Addo government.

    I think this Mahatma man believes truly that Ghanaians have truncated memories. He was superintendent over 17 vehicle ymtaxes, and now wants to follow us!

    Hope these politicians are not creating the impression that they will run this country without taxes.

  • J0eY l0nD0N 1 year ago

    There are legitimate taxes, and there are also extortionate taxes, which JDM is talking about, examples covid-19,E-levy etc etc.

    Say cheese!

    No point being shocked....we are dealing with the NPP who care-less about the Ghanaian.

    Ghanaians should vote JM to change this situation.

    Only the locals are made to pay these taxes. The foreigners are either exempted from taxes or evade taxes and bribe GRA officials when caught. Too many leakages in GRA. The Ewes are overly corrupt than the other tribes in GRA ...

    hypocrisy.
    You don't have to join NDC to voice out general concerns. Mahama should have told the number and types of taxes levied on vehicles during his presidency. Such cheap propaganda does not suffice.

  • Kofi 1 year ago

    NDC never again. You told the nation we were broke so the allowances of training teachers and nurses must be cancelled. Now that the nation has been mismanaged by this government where will you find money to govern. Be seriou ...
