There is a potentially explosive war brewing because the license plate manufacturers have created a dangerous and powerful mafia bent on sabotaging the entire transition because it would not benefit them personally. In 2019, the total number of DV plates sold was about 17,000 at a cost of 350 per plate. Therefore, the total revenue realized from DV plates was five million nine hundred and fifty thousand Ghana Cedis (5,950,000). This has exposed the fraudulent activities of the plate manufacturers who have been in operation for over twenty years but are fighting to continue milking the authority and the state. Regardless of the fact that government revenue would spectacularly increase, the plate manufacturers seem to be unwavering in their plot to sabotage the new system.
