Authorities at the Ganta border post of entry in Nimba County have reported improvements in revenue collection.

The Senior Collector in the area Akoi Garwolo said despite the difficulty encountered, Finance Ministry agents still succeed in doing their job effectively.

Mr. Garwolo said business people who complain about the inspection process at the port of entry are those who want to evade the payment of taxes.

He said the inspection exercise is necessary to determine the quantity and quality of goods coming into the country.

Government has meanwhile, completed the construction of new structures at the Ganta port of entry to facility cross-border inspection of goods and services.

The construction of the new structures was funded by the United States Aid for International Development and implemented by LCIP.
