One major development challenge in Ghana is the lack of Domestic Revenue Generation Education. Majority of Ghanaians do not know they are obliged to pay tax, neither are they aware of how they can contribute to help generate revenue locally for development. This has resulted in deficiency of funds to support the education of impoverished youth in deprived communities of Ghana. The Ghana National Accounts put the GDP at GH¢42.065 billion for 2009, which indicates that tax revenue/GDP ratio of 14% is far less than the 23% required of middle income countries (Budget Statement of Ghana, 2011). This means that revenue mobilization through taxes is very low indicating that many people are outside the tax bracket. Of about 7million workers in Ghana, only 1.5million are income tax payers. ]]>
