MAHAMA AYARIGA CONDEMN'S MILITARY BRUTALITIES IN BAWKU.

Mahama Ayariga, Member of Parliament for Bawku Central, condemns in no uncertain terms the brutality meted out to women, children, old men and innocent youth in the night of Tuesday 18th March 2025 in some sections of Bawku Municipality.

He vows to demand total accountability on the part of the military.

The Member of Parliament has said the conduct of the military is unacceptable.

Whilst he regrets the accidental killing of a military personnel by an unknown gunman and condemns that dastardly act, he states that ransacking and beating innocent civilians and holding the whole town to ransom is equally detested. The rule of law must prevail. Soldiers who are responsible for ensuring law and order should never do that.

The Majority leader has urged the leadership of Bawku and the military to collaborate to investigate the killing of the military personnel instead of the approach adopted by the military command.

Mr Ayariga extends his condolences to the bereaved family of the military personnel who accidentally and unfortunately lost his life and urged caution by all sides. He also expressed his sympathy for the victims of the military brutality of Tuesday night.

He regrets that the military command did not head his appeal not to react violently to the killing of their colleague and went ahead to do what they did. “We need to work together” he said.

“I have confidence that all sides will repose confidence in His Majesty the Asantehene Otumfuo Nana Osei Tutu II to bring finality to the situation in Bawku and end the violence we are experiencing.”

PRU EAST MP CALLS FOR URGENT ACTION ON WATER CRISIS. The Member of Parliament for Pru East Constituency in the Bono East Region, Emmanuel Kwaku Boam, has raised concerns over the acute water shortage affecting his constituency. He has called on the government to implement urgent measures to address the situation. Speaking to the press in Parliament, Boam highlighted the severe impact of the crisis on residents of Yeji and its surrounding communities. He revealed that the lack of access to clean drinking water has led to a surge in waterborne diseases, with over 187 people, including children under the age of two, contracting cholera and typhoid. Several severe cases required surgery. Boam emphasized the irony of the situation, noting that Pru East is surrounded by the Volta Lake. He urged the government to put in place the necessary infrastructure to ensure that residents can benefit from this natural water resource. He further stated that once the national budget is approved, he

PARLIAMENT REPEALS E- LEVY Parliament has officially repealed the Electronic Transfer Levy (E-Levy), a tax imposed on electronic transactions such as mobile money transfers. The decision was made on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, and will take effect once the president gives assent. The E-Levy, introduced in 2022 to broaden the country’s tax base and increase government revenue, faced widespread opposition. Critics argued that the levy disproportionately affected the poor and negatively impacted the economy by discouraging digital transactions. Fulfilling a campaign promise, the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) government moved to abolish the tax upon assuming office. The motion to repeal the levy was led by the Chairman of Parliament’s Finance Committee, Isaac Adongo. Presenting the committee’s report, Mr. Adongo highlighted that the Electronic Transfer Levy Act, 2022 (Act 1075), imposed a 1% charge on electronic transactions, including mobile money payments, bank transfers,
