President John Dramani Maha­ma has appointed Brigadier General Glover Ashong Annan as the Commis­sioner of the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).

He is expected to reset the Customs Divi­sion and support the GRA to meet its targets as the government worked towards fixing the economy.

A statement issued by Mr Felix Kwakye Fosu, the Presidential Spokesman, and Minister of State in-charge of Government Communications, copied to the Ghana News Agency, said Brig Gen Annan is a well-re­spected, dedicated, principled, and patriotic Commissioned Officer of the Ghana Army.

The statement also indicated that the Pres­ident expressed his gratitude to the outgoing Commissioner, Brigadier General Ziblim Ayorrogo, for his service to the Customs Division and Ghana.
