    On the evening of March 31, 2023, Hon. Alhaji Mohammed Hardi Tufeirua, a deputy minister in the Ministry of Food and Agriculture and member of parliament for the Nanton Constituency, was involved in an accident.

    The unfortunate incident happened to the Nanton MP as he was traveling to parliament to take part in the crucial discussion and voting process surrounding the three recently proposed revenue bills.

    He was on his way to the house of parliament when, in a sad turn of events, he was involved in what appeared to be a serious accident.

    The MP chose to go straight to parliament and cast his vote first rather than risking his life by rushing to the hospital at the cost of forfeiting his vote.

    The Nanton MP was allowed to cast his vote before his colleagues before an ambulance fetched him for medical attention, according to GHOne’s Francis Abban, who was reporting live from the house of parliament.

    In the parliament, there are 137 members of the majority caucus and 136 members of the minority. Every person’s contribution counts because every bill requires more than 50% of the votes to pass.

    Meanwhile, Parliament has by 136-137 majority decision passed the three revenue bills on Friday, March 31.

    Since then, the Ghana Revenue Authority Bill 2022, the Growth and Sustainability Levy Bill 2022, the Excise Duty Amendment Bill 2022, and the Income Tax Amendment Bill 2022 have all been approved by parliament.

    The bills are essential in helping the government hasten the board’s approval of the $3 billion staff-level agreement for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Program.

    The minority in Parliament had previously expressed opposition to the bills.

    A bold declaration to the government that it cannot be careless with its spending and expect Ghanaians to foot the bill was made by the minority member George Ricketts-Hagan.
