President of the Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA), Dr Joseph Obeng, has told the Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson that traders are not expecting new taxes in the 2025 budget statement.

He said GUTA will welcome any move by the government to expand the tax net to cover people who do not pay levies. "We're not expecting new taxes.

We're also not going to be worried when new taxes are tailored to bring in people outside the tax net to pay.

That one, we will not be worried.
