The campaigners of the …FixTheCountry have declined the decision through the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to sign up for its protest towards the 1.75% digital transaction levy (E-levy) coverageon Thursday, February 10, 2022. The demonstration dubbed 'Yentua demonstration' is towards the government's proposed E-levy. The demonstration is predicted to begin at 7:00 am at Obra Spot, Kwame Nkrumah Interchange. The National Youth Organiser of the NDC, George Opare Addo, in a letter addressed to the Inspector General of Police, Dr. George Akuffo-Dampare, stated the kids are "annoyed and bored with the happenings withinside the u . s . due to the maladministration of the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government. The…FixTheCountry Movement in a announcement responding to the calls through the NDC asking the organization to sign up for the protest stated it instead desires to construct a multi-sectoral and non-partisan coalition towards the E-levy. It stated "In mild of these, we suppose that the time has come for us to construct a multi-sectoral and non-partisan coalition towards the E-Levy.FixTheCountry is devoted to main that process." It additionally encouraged "all actors and political parties, together with the NDC to maintain to oppose the E-Levy vigorously, together with conserving the the front of the competition with their representatives in Parliament. "We suppose that the NDC can correctly cripple the government's time table in Parliament, in the event that they hold their dedication to the course, with out settling or negotiating away the human beings's competition to the levy." The Movement said that "the E-Levy and the reality that it's beenproposed and is being compelled down our throats regardless of all competition to it, is a symptom of our perverted democracy that flourishes on a winner-takes-all mentality. We have visible our human beings taken as a right one tax after another, one horrific governance after another. Several organizations joined the NDC to oppose the Communication Service Tax in 2008, but once theygained energy in 2008, they made no tries to repeal that tax. In reality, they handed an changeregulation in 2013, to make bigger the scope of that tax."
