Mr Mahama criticised the E-Levy for not meeting its revenue targets and for imposing unnecessary financial strain on citizens.
His campaign promises reflect broader effort to address pressing economic challenges faced by the country.
Mr Mahama also called for a more streamlined way of exporting local talent abroad.
According to him, the current manner in which professionals leave the country due to economic conditions leaves much to be desired.
