They started their nonsense again, do this and that foolishness. No one should be aloud to interfere JM seconds coming . They only want his downfall and nothing more.
ALLOWED=permit.......... ALOUD=raising voice.
If betting is illegal then it should be abolished with every youth who partakes arrested, but if it's not ajd it is legal, then those calling for the increase of its tax, are just very stupid, it is permissible by law for the ...

JM should be facing a dilemma now! Scrapping taxes only reduces money available to government meanwhile JM, has promised a lot of freebies, where is he going to get the funding?
Where was Bawumia going to get the funding from? Did he not also say he will cancel e-levy and betting tax?
Bawumia did not get the chance to implement anything that he wanted. Mahama is the man on the block
Ask Akufo Addo
That should not be your problem.
Betting tax will go
Do you know howuch money was available to NPP? Which they wasted on unnecessary things .. and the rest vanished into thin air?
Those monies will be well used
How many ministers did Akuffo Addo appoint ? And How many ministers is JM promising to appoint ? I sometimes find it strange when I hear people like you saying these things ,a good Father will always reduce his expenditure to ...

Poison chalice suggestion, those who dig pits for others shall fall into it.

Increase betting tax arbitrarily and people will bet secretly and pay no taxes. Where in the World is betting taxes 50%? If he makes the mistake and increases it, you are the very people who shall criticize him.

Gbemela!!! You want NDC to go back to opposition in 2028. Silly advice.
NDC is indeed an evil party..
He should go and win his election and whatever he wants nonsense
Betting tax should be increased or betting should banned completely. Young men allover Ghana have now become very lazy and irresponsible due to betting. It's now a social cancer and will cause hidden problems in the near futu ...

Your stupid dad was busy doing lotto . With the hopes of winning to elevate your family from poverty. Aboa ba. If you’re privileged to something’s, don’t say someone’s lazy. Kwasia b ba
ur useless father made them lazy, kwasiato, if the government created jobs and created enabling evironment u think the youth wont work??? wo maame tw3 smelly
Grain gyimii no kwasia!!! Mahama first came President did he created Job for youth?
Be wise....aboa
Please cancel the free SHS. We will pay the school fees ourselves. Thanks. We have money saved for the 8 years of Akuffo Addo.
Another idiot, Mahama promised to remove the tax and you idiot got up to say he should increase it to 50%, are you out of your mind or you’re mad?
Who allows betting companies to advertise and operate with license? Betting tax is a form of stealing and only fools will deny it.
Useless idea. Come and create jobs and employ the youths. People have won bets and have used it for better things. Stupid institution with mad people.
Gbemela oooo soorrrrr
The one who said this has an agenda. God will punish him.
The man is a real man speaking the truth of God. Gambling is stated in the Bible that Christians shouldn’t do. And you as usual NDC shallow minded idiot says God will punish him.
This STUPID IDEA is not accepted JDM it's a trap to destroy your legacy
Betting tax is double taxation and it is illegal. I use my wages i have paid tax on to bet and when i win you expect me to pay tax on my winnings. The government should make betting illegal for those below 21 years of age and ...

We only need to ban betting and some kind of gambling and allow only national lottery to work simple. We need to protect ourself from what the world is giving us to consume.
Did he think this through before giving it?
Why don't you rather campaign for the banning of betting companies in Ghana rather than advocating for a "sin" tax on betting.
these id!ots dont want you to suceed, why didnt they push the guy lready checked out ruling ghana to do so??? increase it say goodbye to your next candidate, cheddar will even get more votes than your ndc if you listen to the ...

This will discourage students at the tertiary using their school fees for betting. Increase the tax on betting. Thank you.

He didn't make a promise to Ghanaians to turn around and break those promises. If the youth have jobs and they are working, not many will be engaging in the bets. Some should fulfill the promise and look for ways and means to ...

JM you promised to cancel betting tax go ahead a remove I believe that you are an honourable man not like the other one that was the very reason why we voted for you kindly keep 2 ur promise.we are watching you attentively.
Useless and stupid write up, when youth have prayed for God to remove the useless government, u r there putting fire. He'll not listen to ur nonsense.
Bunch of fools
Bunch of fools.
Wabodamm womaame twe
Any government who will encourage betting is a disaster. No future for the youth. Betting is like cocain, very addictive and destructive. I know what I'm saying.
Dabre Mo yare? Is it robbery tax? He is going to cancel ❌ in 120 days, COVID 19 tax and e-levy all gone in 120 days.
I'm into betting, but let me tell you betting is a complete scam. If we don't discourage our youth, I do t know what will happen in the near future. Betting makes one lazy. Cheap money. It's similar to fraud. I swear
Then ban betting companies in Ghana, but throat is stupid. Do not take the earnings of the youth from it as a government!
Bruh NDC just came to destroy the youths life. Because of Mahama I will even stop betting because that man is evil and anything evil he supports.
Better tell him to abolish it.
Foolish guys .. why did you wait till now ???
Nation wreckers !
Mahama is not stupid to listen to this nonsense!
The betting tax should be scrapped completely. This is not to encourage laziness. A lazy person is a lazy person. The tax rather put burden on young people to derive survival out of games. As a Muslim I feel betting should no ...

Mahama will never increase it but will rather cancel it totally. Do you think Mahama is a fool
I AM HAPPY that someone has spoken up for this point of view. The way our youth have taken to betting as if it is a normal job is FRIGHTENING.
Is this guy ok? These are the people who right from the word go, want Mahama to fail but they won't succeed.
Then find jobs for the youth
Saboteurs, the man said he will be cancelling it and you are saying he should rather increase it, what kind of stupidity is this
ASK NANA ADDO TO ACCOUNT FOR THE REVENUE GENERATED FROM BETTING TAX FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS BEFORE TELLING JDM TO INCREASE IT. ALL THE TAXES COLLECTED DOWN THE YEARS HAS NOT BENEFITED THE COUNTRY AND KEEP BORROWING
He needs to get them something doing first before the tax can be increased. At the moment no jobs .
CRIMINALS IN CASOCKS...WHY DIDNT YOU GIVE THIS ADVISE TO THE CHIMPANZEE PRESIDENT..
Beware of bad counsel - Bible. So many haters of Mahama’s administration pretending to love him and giving him Bad counsel to ultimately fail. Governments in advanced countries protect the people from gambling by focusing o ...

Ghanaweb your mother ok.
Npp members yur mother .
Yu we are fools .
Please Mr. President increase the taxes of the bet companies rather, not the customers. Let the companies pay 5 times the tax they're paying now. They are chopping people money
If that is your concern then betting should rather be banned in ghana
You guys think Mahama is like Akufu Addo you can manipulate wait when you win your own presidency then you increase it to 50% you are not serious you have business and jobs so betting will be nuisance to you.
nkwasiasem if betting affects the youth why dont u make it illegal for the youth
How can the in coming government promise to. abolish the tax only to think of increasing it while it has not even taken over yet. Advising the government to increase the tax is like trying to make it unpopular as it is asking ...

They should also tax lottery in ghana 50% when you won because it also a gamble.
I don't think Is the institutions that voted for mahama
Is the youth.
So please do what they want for them simple.
Kwasiafoc. Betting is the only avenue now for the youth to make life. Those calling for the increment are those who want JM downfall. Enemies in disguise
President elect please understand that betting is done every where along the globe and those saying you should increase the betting tax from 10% to 50% are the same people that will celebrate the fall of your government.The y ...

This is a misleading and anti NDC piece of advise as it contradicts the party's campaign promise.
Idiot win your election and implement ur policies.
Mahama should be careful not to let these crooks deceive him because they want to create a way for the NPP to come back. Create jobs for the youth first to justify increasing bet text to 50%.
They are Christians. They should go to their churches and let pastors preach to the youth to stop betting if it is not good, but the president does not create jobs for the youth and can tax them. Nonsense!
The level of inner confusion among Npp members and their so called institute is extremely high.

I think that the institute should also investigate the reasons why the youth are into betting activities. I believe that if systems are really working and in place, the youth wouldn't indulge in such activities. Thank you.

Why increase betting tax in Ghana? One of the ways of creating jobs for the youth by JDM is to bring youth in betting. So please let encourage JDM to remove the betting tax so that more people will bet on sports.
@GhanaWeb TIOCS is mad for saying this trash .. Jehovah fire their goddamn ass in that so called institute.
This stupid people are part of NPP down fall and they want mahama to fall too. Malafuckers!!
Sure, I support.
They should tell him to cancel all lottery in Ghana, what sort of nonsense is that?

With his parliamentarians he can do that Ghanaians gives him the mandate
Ghana web and co ,you have started it again .but this time it wont work for you.
You'll be marked boot to boot with your lies and propaganda, you have started the political witch hunt so early but you'll fail this time .
I want to ask Mr. Eric Aidoo the number of works he has created for the youth in his community.
Mr Mahama please becareful of this people' they just want your incoming government to fail, remember the promises you made to the youth about abolishing the Betting tax. This are one of your enemies hiding behind economy
Evil man
Great advice.
It's sad how these so called institutions all of a sudden care for the youths. If you want to stop the youths from betting, why not advice the president to close down all the betting companies instead. Upon knowing how diffi ...

Who is this one too.
This is clearly a fake news, allow the man to do his work and stop spreading fake news.
Ghanaians don’t vote because of Ghana however they vote because of NPP is for Asante. Now 10% that you are crying for has increased to 50%. Good
