According to reports, Colonel Kwadwo Damoah (rtd), the Commissioner of Customs for the Ghana Revenue Authority, has been relieved of his responsibilities by President Nana Akufo Addo.
According to a report from Yen, the Commissioner has been asked by the Presidency to transfer his authority and responsibilities to Acting Deputy Commissioner Seidu Iddrisu Iddisah.
According to the statement, Mr. Iddisah would serve in that capacity till a permanent replacement was found.
The modification will be effective as of Friday, August 26, 2022.
Adu Kyei, the deputy customs commissioner, has been moved to the finance ministry, says Yen as well.
In an effort to discredit Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng, Colonel Kwadwo Damoah recently made news by getting into an altercation with him.
Colonel Damoah said the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) had attempted to indict himself and the Deputy Commissioner of Operations of the GRA in an investigative report released this week when speaking to senior Customs officials at a retreat in Kumasi on Wednesday.
The Special Prosecutor's probe, according to Colonel Damoah, was "hollow and motivated by hate."
"Anyone who has read that study carefully would be aware of its underlying assumptions, but fortunately for me, God is always on my side. I even dispatched others to go tell him that he's a young lad and I am older than him because that person had told some individuals who had come (to tell me that) that he was going to publish something that would discredit me and he would do so. He will find it difficult to ruin me since I have lived a meaningful life.
Colonel Damoah stated, "People have tried it; I have survived; and this one too, I will survive," to thunderous ovation from the Senior Customs Officers gathering at the Kumasi event.
The Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, allegedly singled out Col. Kwadwo Damoah because he prevented one Mr. Akurugu from being seconded to the OSP.
