You know, growing up, we used to see Information Services Department going to communities and they played all sort of videos and materials to send information across,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

According to Ken, the implementation of the e-levy would have been smoother if the government had used film to create the awareness.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo like e-levy for example, would they have struggled they way they struggled if we used a system like this to send information across to educate the masses? So there is the need for us to look at that and enforce it,\u201d he told the host Kwame Dadzie.<\/p>\n\n
