Do you remember kume preko demo? Jerry had VAT at 7%, when NPP(Kuffour) came to power they raised it to 15%! We though VAT was bad that's why Nana Addo (NPP) demo against it? Why not scrap it? Selected memory huh? MALAFAKA
Very good, taxes should be used judiciously as said
Bawuliar's Lecture yesterday was a confirmation that this Nana Addo/Bawuliar Govt has failed completely. It re-iterates my point that NPP has no candidate going into the 2024 elections. Only NPP Jean Jezzy Mensah and her boyf ...
