Maverick Ghanaian politician, Kennedy Agyapong, has acquired a Mercedes Benz worth 151,000 dollars.

He claimed to have paid about 8.5 per cent as tax after buying the vehicle.

The Assin Central MP revealed he bought the new Mercedes S-Class from the balance of his money budgeted for his brain tumor surgery in the United States of America.

He further questioned where people pay tax after buying cars.

“My hospital bills in America had leftover funds so I decided to treat myself by buying a Mercedes Benz S-class… as I speak to you, I have paid 80,000 dollars in advance but I am yet to receive the car to pay the balance,” Mr Agyapong said on Oman FM.

“What got me angry, I went there (to the dealership) and we arrived at 138,000 dollars plus tax of over 8.5% tax. The same tax you are refusing to pay here. Where in Ghana do people pay tax on car purchases?

“After working the amount and tax, it came up to 151,000 dollars. They now told me to pay an extra 10,000 dollars because of scarcity and for their efforts to get me a car. I asked, ‘are you mad? Why did you not add it?”
