Gyimifuo ba. You are advocating no insults but even an idiot like you think you understand the convoluted statement by Professor Know it all. Who’s more illiterate than you? What did he say about the signing of those numerous questionable POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENTS during the 2013 - 2016 MAHAMA ERA? You are clearly taxing the people and explaining with backward mentality. Ayariga thinks Ghanaians must keep quiet because it’s only 1 cedi. Karma is real and it’s exposing liars and empty barrels so quickly. Fake certificates galore, broken promises all over the place, new taxes and price increases are a daily occurrence. Professor Asare must come to Ghana, work here and assist in fixing problems and stop these futile academic effusions. A word to the wise is on FAKE CERTIFICATES. NANIAMA

I totally agree with prof. If there is no accountability with the procurement and corrupt activities by some few individuals at ECG, why should poor citizens continue to pay for that. How long will you continue adding levies on petroleum just to pay for corrupt activities. They did not even show Ghanaians of the evidence of the containers they claimed to have found. The jinapor guy can not be trusted. He is shielding some corrupt leaders.

President Mahama and NDC leaders talk about PDS scandal in opposition but today none of them is talking about it. Gabby and bumpty or whatever is name is are still roaming with their gay shocks and pants. Bawumia has not been invited even for his involvement. 12 million puwulugu dam etc. Is NDC waiting getting to election before they decide to disturb Ghanaians about fighting corruption? Stop the D levy and let those who stole the monies to pay for it. Don't rub Peter to pay Paul and NDC and NPP should stop the mentra " I scratch your back, you scrub my back. We are losing our patience.

What about those NDC mucus who signed those outrageous IPP agreements where we pay for energy whether we take or not? Examine your empty head before you throw stones at innocent people

Prof u are on point! There should be accountability that should be swifter than the current bill.

Our courts are too slow on bringing perpetrators to book while our parliament is quick to ratify bills into laws! We either allow sluggishness on both sides or swiftness on both!

I live in the US and when we buy petrol, there is a 25 cents tax per gallon attached. This money partly go to the federal and state government. In my state , the government gets 5 cents. This money goes to Department of Transportation to be used to maintain the roads.
My el3ectric power bill also attracts tax to be used for improving and maintaining the elctric grid and power stations.
On this note, I agree with JDM. In Ghana they should replace the word Levy with the word tax to make it clear.
If you want to improve your living conditions then we have to provide the necessary funds to achieve this objective.
