Actress Yvonne Nelson says government should shelve the implementation of the Electronic Transactions Levey (E-levy).
According to her, the masses are not happy about the levy, thus, do not want it introduced.
Speaking on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, Thursday, she said, “the e-Levy, Ghanaians do not like the idea, so why don’t we listen to Ghanaians. They are not happy about it, why don’t we listen to Ghanaians, it’s really that simple.”
Yvonne Nelson, therefore, called for the Bill to be scrapped as demanded by the populace.
Also on the show, actress Michelle Diamond Gbagonah, popularly known as Michy, called for the levy to be scrapped.
She explained that people are struggling economically, thus, the levy will only intensify their suffering.
“…too many bills are being paid. Times are really hard with extra bills, so I don’t think the E-Levy is a good idea unless the money is going to be put into good use”, she said.
Miss Nelson and Michy are not the only creatives that have shared their disapproval of the levy.
Rapper Sarkodie in a tweet said he does not believe Ghanaians are kicking against the proposed Electronic Transaction Levy (E-Levy) because it is “bad”.
