Former Member of Parliament for Dome Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, has stated that she has no regrets over her decision to abstain from voting on the Electronic Transfer Levy (E-Levy) in Parliament in 2022.

Speaking during an interview on Asempa FM on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, she stated that her decision was influenced by the hardship the levy would impose on ordinary Ghanaians who are still struggling to survive.

According to her, she was torn between her allegiance to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and her constituents.

"Some NPP members kicked against the E-Levy because of the hardship it would impose on the ordinary Ghanaians who are struggling to make ends meet. It did not sit well with me, I had discussions with my father, and I was torn between my church and my political party.

"In Dome Kwabenya, most of our church members opposed it. I took a firm decision to recuse myself. I am looking forward to the day in Parliament where MPs will have the courage to vote against policies of government," she stated.

The E-Levy was passed in Parliament despite a walkout by the Minority group in the House on Tuesday, March 29, 2022.

Meanwhile, the current John Dramani Mahama government has announced that the removal of the levy will take effect at the end of March 2025.
