President John Mahama has appointed Brigadier General Glover Ashong Annan as the new Commissioner of the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).
The appointment is expected to bring new leadership to the Customs Division, with Brig. Gen. Annan tasked with resetting the division and supporting the GRA in meeting its targets.
A well-respected, dedicated, and principled officer of the Ghana Army, Brig. Gen. Annan previously served as the Presidential Security Coordinator before his new appointment.
In a statement signed by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the Spokesperson to the President and Minister of Government Communications, the President expressed confidence in Brig. Gen. Annan’s ability to steer the division towards efficiency as the government works to fix the economy.
The President also thanked the outgoing Commissioner, Brigadier General Ziblim Ayorogo, for his service to the Customs Division and Ghana.
Brig. Gen. Annan’s appointment comes at a crucial time as the government seeks to enhance revenue mobilisation and streamline operations at the Customs Division to boost Ghana’s economic recovery efforts.
