You took IMF loan and claimed credit for that loan. IMF have to find ways to get their money back and it's that simple
Our leaders have lost their brains because of IMF. They can see the suffering of their own citizens
You have not paid contractors and you want to tax them vat for using electricity, how they going to pay?
Useless finance minister. Akufo-Addo had saddled Ghana with this incompetent Ofori-Attah who in 7 years can’t develop the systems to bring the 65% informal sector into the income tax bracket. Always the lazy man’s spproac ...

Animals in government!!
Who owns the budget? Ofori Attah? Akufo Addo is buckling after Nana B, the NPP national organiser, boomed on Kokrokoo.
We are now left with the Emissions Tax. Naanimaa tiritiri. You go talk true.
Obviously, this wasn't a govt thought idea in the interest of Ghanaians!
We have the men. How come the IMF young boys are dictating to the Yale graduates? Apuuu
Now they are willing to cut down government expenditure to make up for the shortfall, why didn’t they think of that from the beginning? As far as these greedy bastards are concerned, the people must always be sacrificed for ...

Big U-Turn.Force Ken Ofori Atta to resign!!
The IMF never asked Government to charge VAT on electricity.
SOLUTIONS
1. REDUCE the size of GOVERNMENT
2. REDUCE the budget and expenditure of OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT MACHINERY etc
3. REINTRODUCE ROAD TOLLS.
Oh a govt of wicked and corrupt fools. May God curse all of you.

I believe the government didn't go to imf to lye to them that Ghanaians have accepted the vat on electricity prior to the receiving imf bail out?
Same people who told us they won't go to IMF today, they won't go to IMF tomorrow. Inept and corrupt government!

Just look at Ghana which had an independent since 1957 this is where we are as a country? We have to as permission before taking a decision
Odwan Ofori Atta. Are you waiting for IMF to tell you that Ghanaians are suffering and can't pay that stupid tax? If you let Ghanaians pay this tax secretly , you and your generation will suffer the consequences.
Thieves it's just a matter of time you will root in Nsawam prisons. May all the CURSES in both the Bible and the KORAN be on you Akufo Addo and Bawumia
Such a evil man. I don't believe in God anymore because of this kind of people
Akuffu Addo led NPP government is a crime scene
The most useless Finance Minister to date in Ghana is Ken Ofori Atta. You have been imposing too many useless taxes on Ghanaians and now you’re telling Ghanaians that you should consult with the IMF before you remove the el ...

The proposal to tax electricity was proposed by the NPP government to the IMF. That tells you how insensitive this government has become
Mark my words, Akufo Ado will make sure NPP remains in power.
The rot and criminalities are just too much.
They will do west than what they did to be in power in the 2020 election.
Animals in government. So the 15% is from IMF?? Next time Imf will buy guns for u to kill your citizens and NPP government will gladly do it.
Some African countries, including Ghana are so shameful these countries are literally being ruled by the colonialists. After fighting and winning independence, the IMF, a neo-colonial entity, has to tell us what to do and we ...

Ghana is completely finished no saviour because we are governed by thieves and fools
From what I derived from the governments statement, it means they are looking for more avenues to create taxes and syphon money from the ordinary Ghanaian to pay for their loans. And one of such is the vehicle pollution tax.
