The Member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram Constituency, Sam George charged Ghanaians not to trust the Akufo-Addo administration since it has no track record when comes to the management of public purse.
According to Sam George, the NPP has mismanaged the public pursue adding that it left the country in an uncomfortable state.
Speaking to Journalists at the 'Ny3ntua' demonstration held in Accra on Thursday, the MP said "We cannot trust the NPP. They don't have a track record of trust when it comes to management of public pursue"
The lawmaker also slammed the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) adding that the Akufo-Addo government will not use the E-Levy for infrastructure as it claims.
"When they tell you that the E-Levy is going to be used for infrastructure, it is a lie. Their track record doesn't support what they claim to do. We have seen similar funds and how they abused it"
The MP challenged the public to stand up for their right and demand the cancellation of the e-levy.
"We expect that every Ghanaian who will be affected by the inconsiderate E-Levy to show solidarity with us, because this is not an NDC thing but a Ghanaian one. This is about the suffering about to be imposed on us"
"I hope people will come out and show their displeasure at a time where Ghanaians are against this E-Levy, we see the NPP having a party and mocking us with an E-Levy cake. I was not disappointed seeing that because I know that the NPP does not care about anybody"
The Ningo Prampram MP describe the NPP as inconsiderate and heartless.
Responding to what will be their line of action should government fail to heed to the calls of dropping the E-Levy, he said "The power of the people is greater than the people in Parliament. They will see the anger of the people in this country"
Some of the demonstrators lambasted the media for failing to kick against the E-Levy.
