Kofi Bentil, Vice President of Imani Ghana, has strongly criticised the practice of toll booths as an inefficient and costly method of collecting revenue.
His remarks come in the wake of a statement by Dr.
Cassiel Ato Forson, the Finance Minister-designate, who promised to reinstate the collection of tolls across the country.
In a recent post on Facebook on January 14, 2025, Bentil questioned the wisdom behind the toll collection system, citing the significant time and resources spent at toll booths for minimal returns. "It doesn't make sense to waste time and stress for an hour just to pay Gh₵1," he stated, further emphasising the disproportionate costs involved in maintaining the toll booths.
