Mobile Money vendors threaten strike over E-Levy
Mobile Money

Mobile Money Operators wish to inform the general public, customers, and users of mobile money that as part of actions to register our total displeasure with the Government's proposed e-levy of 1.75%, we deem it necessary to embark on industrial action.

As an association that implements all mobile money policies through our operators, we see this levy as very regressive and critical to the survival of our businesses.

Consequently, as part of our demonstration on Thursday, December 23, 2021, our services as Mobile Money Agents will not be accessible across the country.

All Agents will go on strike hence all outlets will remain closed. If all efforts remained futile, an indefinite action would be taken thereafter.
