OSP says intervention has reduced corruption in GRA Customs vehicle auctions

The Director of Strategy, Research, and Communication at the OSP, Samuel Appiah Darko The Director of Strategy, Research and Communications at the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), Samuel Appiah Darko, says the office’s intervention has helped reduce corruption within the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).

We had to change the benchmark value that was given to Customs Officials, the opportunity to be able to engage in corruption and all that; the OSP is the one that brought all these things to an end through the work we did in the Labianca case and all that," he said.

Mr Appiah Darko said the intervention had helped sanitise the auction system and minimise opportunities for corruption within the division.
