    Outspoken media personality Bridget Otoo has taken to social media to criticise members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over comments made by the former Minister of Finance regarding the betting tax.

    In a post on X on March 11, 2025, Otoo slammed the previous administration following claims by former Minister of Finance, Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam, that the controversial 10 percent tax on betting earnings was never collected by the government.

    Describing them as “jokers,” Otoo pointed out the irony in the former minister’s statement, especially considering that the NPP had used the abolishment of the betting tax as a key campaign message.

    “Vote for us to cancel ‘e-levy and betting tax’ yet now they’re saying they never implemented the betting tax. These guys are jokers,” she posted.

    What happened?

    Following the reading of the 2025 Budget by the current Minister of Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, in Parliament, Dr. Adam stated that the betting tax was never implemented.

    “Betting taxes were never collected, they were never implemented. Abolishing a non-existent tax is deceptive and misleads Ghanaians,” he said.

    Dr. Adam’s statements have been met with widespread backlash, both on and off social media, with many accusing him of lying.
