Ghanaian Parliament: Late-Night Levy Sparks Political Firestorm
Ghanaian Parliament: Accusations of Late-Night Levy Passage. Accusations of underhanded dealings in the Ghanaian Parliament have surfaced following an interview with Hon. Kojo Oppong Nkrumah. Nkrumah, MP for Ofoase-Ayirebi, alleges that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) deliberately introduced the Energy Sector Levy late at night, avoiding scrutiny. "The NDC deliberately smuggled the Energy Sector Levy into Parliament at night," Nkrumah stated. This claim has ignited a firestorm of debate, with the NDC yet to respond. The incident highlights concerns about transparency and accountability in the Ghanaian legislative system. The passage of the levy itself has broader implications for the Ghanaian economy and energy sector, making this a story of significant public interest.
