Management of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has, with immediate effect, interdicted five (5) officers of the Customs Division pending the outcome of an internal investigation.
The decision follows preliminary findings arising from an enforcement operation conducted on February 18, 2026, involving a consignment of transit cargo declared for onward movement to Niger.
The operation revealed discrepancies in documentation and compliance with established transit procedures, prompting a detailed internal review.
Initial assessments indicate potential procedural breaches requiring further independent and comprehensive examination.
The investigation will determine the full facts, including the extent of any individual involvement and departures from established Customs protocols.
Additional officers may be invited to assist with the investigation where necessary and upon conclusion of the process, appropriate administrative action will be taken in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
GRA wishes to assure all stakeholders and the general public that this action reflects a commitment to protect national revenue, growth of local industries and promote overall economic development.
We remain committed to ensure that all revenue collection and enforcement procedures are executed with the highest standards of professionalism and accountability.
