The Member of Parliament for Builsa South Dr. Clement Apaak has opined that the implementation of the “obnoxious” would not have started if Ghana was a truly democratic state following the pending case at the Supreme Court challenging the levy.
The legislator went after the President slamming him for what he described as reckless and unbridled impunity.
To him, Ghana’s democracy has been perverted to the point that the President has become the law, the process, and the procedure.
“Unfortunately, our democracy has been so perverted, to the extent that the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government is the law, the process, and procedure.
The levels of reckless and unbridled impunity we are witnessing under the so-called legal luminary cum human rights lawyer President is unprecedented in the history of our Republic.”

KILLER E-levy Update – The obnoxious, regressive, unjustified, extortion scheme called E-levy is being implemented as of today by the GRA on behalf of government.
This is despite a case at the Supreme Court, filed by Hon. Haruna Iddrisu, Hon. Mahama Ayariga and Hon. Okudzeto Ablakwa, challenging the legitimacy of the processes leading to its purported passage into law.
In any true and proper democracy, where the rule of law works, this should not be happening. If not, how dare the GRA overlook the processes in court and go ahead to tax momo.
Unfortunately, our democracy has been so perverted, to the extent that the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government is the law, the process, and procedure.
The levels of reckless and unbridled impunity we are witnessing under the so-called legal luminary cum human rights lawyer President is unprecedented in the history of our Republic.
Surely, the coming NDC government, under the leadership of John Dramani Mahama, will repeal the obnoxious E-monster within 100 days upon assumption of office.
In Solidarity,
Dr. Clement Apaak
M.P, Builsa South
