The Finance Minister, Mr Ken Ofori Atta says the passage of e-levy is a spiritual breakthrough for the country.
The E-Levy was passed on Tuesday, March 29, 2022 in the absence of the Minority MPs, who had walked out before the Bill was considered at the second reading stage.
The Minority had complained that it had been taken by surprise by the unexpected consideration of the levy.
The E-levy was not listed in Parliament’s business statement for this week.
The Minority MPs later walked out of Parliament before the second reading of the Bill after debating it.

In an interview with Atinka TV after the President delivered the State of the Nation’s Address 2022 on Wednesday, March 30, 22, Mr Ofori Atta said with the passage of the E-levy, he foresees a major transformation of the country.
“I foresee just a major transformation. And I think really, yesterday in my view as a spiritual person, it was a breakthrough for us. We can’t have one day in which is a President’s birthday, in which you will do the first interchange in our country in the North, in which E-levy passed, in which the Black stars also win. If we begin to belittle and not realize the faithfulness of the Lord, and where we are going? I think we are making a major mistake,” he said.
