The management of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has assured the business community of reforms in its revenue mobilization drive.

According to the GRA, the ‘Rambo Style’ of collecting revenue from the public is now a thing of the past.

Addressing members of the Parliamentary Press Corp in Accra, on the operations of GRA, the Deputy Commissioner of the Ghana Revenue Authority, Daniel Adisi, stated that his outfit is more focused on engagement with tax policy.

“The business community is ready to engage us. Like I did say taxation is a bit technical, so you have to explain, explain and explain, and that is what we are trying to do. Now GRA is customer centric. Please carry this message across and let’s grow together. Because without taxes we can’t grow our nation.

"We go out there to collect loans and other things, it is some country’s citizens that have paid their taxes, we also must endeavour to pay. GRA is ready to educate and use channels like this to reach out there for us to know the importance of the taxation we need to pay,” Daniel Adisi stated.
