We don't even need this long analysis and thesis to know that Amin Adam is lying through his teeth. Just install any of the betting apps on your phone. Bet for fun and when you win you'll see the 10% deducted clearly. If he doesn't take betters for fools he wouldn't be blatantly lying knowing very well that the evidence is clearly out there in the public domain. Nauseating.

Good job!
Some of us needed this analysis. Case closed! My simple question is why are we promoting betting and gambling?

Mr finance minister did not abolish those high taxes on imports? We pay more taxes on cars than the actual cost. VAT alone is about 22% when it should be around 12)14.

2028 elections.., NPP will lose the opposition position. CPP will become the biggest opposition party and NPP will become extinct. History books will help to remember them for what they did.

Guys read better. There 3 types of tax in the gaming and betting area.
1. 10% witholding tax on lottery winnings regulated by NLA
2. 10% tax on sports and gaming bettings wins
3. 20% tax on gross revenue of gaming commissions .

These 3 above are not the same. The one numbered 1 was not implemented . only number 2 and 3 was implemented.

So if Ato Forsons says he will abolish 10% witholding tax on lottery winnings ( otherwise known as betting tax ) then he is rather misleading the public. because the 10% witholding tax on lottery winnings is not the same as the 10% tax on sports and game winnings. The 10% witholding tax on lottery winnings was on private entities under NLA. Please fellow stop the emotional ejaculation and read

If NPP really understood what hit them in the last elections, they would be observing a strategic silence. The more they talk, the more the make the people angry. For instance, if there was no betting tax in existence why were they promising to abolish it just as the NDC promised during last year's election campaigns?
