Economist Dr. Adu Owusu Sarkodie has expressed satisfaction with a speech by New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, stating that it left him feeling well-rested.

In an interview on Adom FM's morning show, Dwaso Nsem Thursday, Dr. Sarkodie acknowledged Bawumia's digitization initiatives as a positive step forward, emphasizing that the presented ideas weren't new to experts like him who had extensively discussed tax-related matters.

“I slept well after listening to Bawumia. He shouldn’t be blamed for everything” he said in an interview on Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem Thursday.

In the address titled 'Bawumia Speaks,' the Vice President pledged to remove certain tax policies, including the controversial E-Levy, Emission Tax, and the 15% VAT on electricity.

While some praise these commitments, skeptics question why these taxes are proposed for removal when implemented by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

As an economist, Dr. Sarkodie believes Dr. Bawumia is prepared to address tax regimes to prevent adverse effects on the economy.

He considers the Vice President's decision to abolish the E-Levy and other taxes, if elected President, as a divine blessing and commends Bawumia's vision for a modern system. Dr. Sarkodie reiterates that the proposed tax regime reforms will contribute to economic recovery.
