D-Black, a rapper and the CEO of Black Avenue Music, bemoaned the state of the nation’s economy while regretting his past support of the Akufo-Addo-led government.
He claimed that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Ghana’s President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta had deceived the public by making untrue claims.
He’s referring to a time in 2017 when the government announced that they were removing certain taxes to help individuals and businesses.
D-Black had praised them at that time for reducing and getting rid of taxes, including those on spare parts, raw materials, and petroleum.
On August 18, 2023, D-Black returned to that earlier tweet and stated his displeasure.
D-Black claimed that in 2017, the government deceived him and others with promises to cut and eliminate taxes. He’s disappointed and feels like they were deceived.
Replying to fans on claims that he had been silent on the country’s current state, D- Black expressed his regret.
D-Black joins a list of celebrities who have regretted their open support for the current government due to economic hardships.
