Gov’t should have created jobs before tax on bets – LilWin

Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah, who is professionally known as LilWin, has also added his voice to the controversies surrounding the recent tax on sports betting in Ghana.

Speaking to Tony Best on Adwuma Mmere on Akoma FM on Wednesday, August 23, the actor asserted that even though he does not invest any money in sports betting, he will not blame anyone who indulges in it.

To him, most people who are into betting are mostly unemployed.

“If I were the president and knowing very well I’ve not created enough jobs especially for the youth, until I’ve created jobs for them I never would have put tax on betting.

“By creating enough jobs, you could even put 60% on betting in order to deter people from the act,” LilWin had said.
