Ghana's D-Levy: Public Outcry Forces Reconsideration

Ghana's D-Levy: A Call for Withdrawal Amidst Public Discontent The ruling party, NPP, is facing mounting pressure to withdraw the recently implemented D-Levy. The levy, a tax on electronic transactions, has sparked widespread discontent among Ghanaians. The impact is felt across various sectors, from transportation to everyday market transactions. The video shows scenes from bustling markets and crowded transportation hubs, highlighting the daily struggles of ordinary citizens. One market vendor, speaking anonymously, stated, "This levy is killing our businesses. We are already struggling with high prices, and this just makes things worse." The NPP maintains the levy is crucial for economic development, but the growing public outcry suggests a need for reconsideration. The situation underscores the delicate balance between economic policy and the well-being of the population. The coming days will likely see continued protests and political debate surrounding the D-Levy's future.
