Member of Parliament (MP) for Bantama constituency in the Ashanti Regio, Hon. Henry Kwabena Kokofu has ardently affirmed that the Mahama led National Democratic Congress (NDC) would lose the November 7 elections based on continues increment in electricity prices and unresolved the energy crisis.“ . . The Mahama led NDC administration manipulated its way into power, but its unmanaged high electricity prices and energy crisis would make it loose completely in the upcoming elections,” he said.
He explained that the recent 34.5% charge on every 100 Ghana Cedis electricity credit purchased goes to government as tax, therefore he refuses to understand when members of the NDC accuse and insult the Electricity Company Of Ghana (ECG) for using their poor delivery of services to sabotage their government from retaining power, when they are rather the benefactors of the pending hikes and problems arising out of tale.
“Furthermore, he noted that out of the 34.5% charges paid to government, 10% represent Energy levy, and 17.5% go for VAT and the remaining 7% for service charge. This is in fact degrading the Ghanaian economy, since the president of the land with his government never review taxes before implementing them. All that leaders of the NDC think about is how to get money into their pockets and not the welfare of citizens,” he told UTV’s ‘Adekye Nsroma’ host, Lawyer Tweneboah Kodua.
To him “President John Dramani Mahama is the worst president Ghana has ever had . . . and I belief every true Ghanaian would side with my genuine research conducted, since nothing is moving in its right direction in this country.”
Hon. Henry Kwabena Kokofu indicated that he gets so angry when a country like Ghana in its current state calls for partnership among all the 53 Africa countries when it has nothing to partner in return.
He said, “Ghana is amongst the 6 countries who have declared the AU day as public holiday, making the day go waste when most citizens do not even understand the significance of the day”.
