Parliament's Minority Caucus attacked the NDC government after Ghana Revenue Authority stopped the Energy Sector Levies Amendment Act. Officials called the fuel tax the Dumsor Levy and planned to start it June 16. The tax would have raised money to pay energy debts and cover sector problems. Citizens and businesses fought against the new charges before they began. Leaders decided to delay the policy after facing strong opposition.

Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin signed a statement that called the government weak and confused. His group said politicians made poor decisions without talking to important people first. The statement blamed leaders for changing their minds about economic policies. Opposition members said the government used Middle East oil prices as excuses for bad planning. They accused officials of being dishonest about their real reasons.

The Minority wants Parliament to completely remove the law rather than just pause it. They believe the tax would have hurt families already struggling with high costs. More expensive fuel would have made transportation and food prices go up across the country. The group demands urgent action to kill the bill permanently. They plan to keep fighting any harmful tax policies that hurt regular people.
