Sarkodie speaks on the E-levy the Gov’t he campaigned for wants to impose on Ghanaians

Famous Ghanaian musician, Sarkodie has spoken on the Electronic Transactions Levy that the current Government is seeking to impose on citizens.

E-levy has become the new topic in the country as the President Nana Addo-Dankwa Akufo-Addo led Government is seeking to impose an E-levy of 1.7% on citizens per every electronic payment via mobile money among others.

A fan of Sarkodie reached out to Sarkodie to make his stance on the new tax which the Government intends to impose on Ghanaians known.

Sarkodie who in the run-up to the 2020 general election supported this government in his lyrics in his statement on the E-levy said that he lays tax when he travels to other countries because those systems allow him to make money but it is not the same in Ghana.

In a tweet, Sarkodie said “I pay a lot of taxes outside and I don’t complain because I’m using avenues they made available to make 💰( it’s only right ) it’s not same here and that’s why we complain not because the “E Levy” is bad . When you broke, a harmless “good morning “ can sound like a tease”

It is however unclear if by this statement, Sarkodie is against or in support of the Electronic Transactions Levy.
