Famous Ghanaian rapper Kwaw Kese has opined that just as business ventures in the country are taxed churches must also be taxed as well.
The rapper is of the opinion that Ghanaian pastors make money from the church and therefore should be taxed to generate revenue towards developmental projects in the country.
According to the rapper not only should they be taxed towards developmental projects in the country but their source of income must be investigated.
“It is high time churches pay taxes in Ghana because they make a lot of money and they don’t support the needy in society”, he said in an interview on Kingdom Plus.
“I know what I’ve said some Pastors will come and make doom prophecies against me but it doesn’t make sense that in Ghana, people are hungry but the Pastor has built mansions and has a lot of cars to their credit meanwhile, people are hungry,”
He added that its sad how kids as young as 2 years old are seen every now and then in traffic begging for alms while some churches have promised of providing shelter for such people.
