MTN Ghana CEO, Stephen Blewett, has made it clear that the removal of the controversial Electronic Transfer Levy (E-Levy) cannot happen overnight due to regulatory procedures.   Speaking at the MTN House in Accra on Wednesday, April 2, Stephen said, "There's a process that has to be followed," Blewett said, addressing concerns about the E-Levy's removal and the steps that must be taken.

He emphasized that any change to the levy would require official approval. "I can't abolish E-Levy until I'm told to do it.

If I do it ahead of time, the Bank of Ghana will catch me," he added.

The E-Levy, introduced with the aim of generating revenue for Ghana's economy, has not met expectations.
