The presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, announced on Thursday that he would abolish the luxury vehicle tax introduced by the government to tax motor vehicles of greater capacity.
The tax applies to all vehicles, including commercial vehicles, agricultural tractors, collection vehicles, among others.
Mahama said the next administration of the NDC would abolish the tax if the government does not abolish it until 2020, Mahama said.
Addressing the leaders and drivers of the GPRTU station at the Neoplan station in Accra, Mahama said the new tax did not generate so much revenue itself and wondered why the government would not abolish it.
The NDC chief was visiting, before Easter, selected truck fleets to advocate for an accident-free Easter holiday, advise and encourage drivers to take greater responsibility for their pbadengers and them themselves arrive safely at their destination.
At the Kaneshie Truck Park, Mahama promised local GPRTU leaders that his government would work with them to build a modern bus terminal.
