Ghanaian rapper and AMG Business boss, Criss Waddle, has sparked conversation online after humorously criticizing the former Akufo-Addo administration’s tax strategies. According to him, had the previous government remained in office, Ghanaians might have been subjected to absurd levies such as a “Pope and Trump levy.”
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Criss Waddle wrote:
“If Nana Addo was still in power, we would have been paying Pope Levy and Trump Levy by now.”
His post appears to mock the series of controversial taxes introduced during the former administration, including the Electronic Transfer Levy (E-Levy) and other fiscal policies that faced intense backlash from the public and opposition groups.

While some Ghanaians on social media found the comment humorous, others used the moment to reflect on the real economic hardships tied to past tax policies. The post quickly went viral, with many agreeing that the previous administration had overburdened citizens with levies.
As President John Mahama’s current administration continues to propose reforms in revenue generation, including efforts to block leakages and widen the tax net, such public commentary highlights the lingering skepticism toward any new fiscal measures.
