Female staff of the Ghana Revenue Authority are encouraging colleague workers to stay in good health to aid in the achievement of revenue collection targets.<\/p>\n

President of the GRA Ladies, Vivian Ne-Ormeh Nyoni, says the neglect of one\u2019s health status can impede performance of the group.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe sensitize our women to be health-conscious. Once you are healthy you can do everything. We are encouraging everybody to take interest in a healthy lifestyle so they can contribute to the development of the country\u201d, she said.<\/p>\n

The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) is expected\u00a0to achieve revenue targets of GH\u00a280.3 billion for the 2022 revenue collection year.<\/p>\n

In 2021, the revenue collector was able to collect a little over GH\u00a257.32 billion as against a target of GH\u00a257.02 billion.<\/p>\n

The Ghana Revenue Authority Ladies Association is optimistic of achieving the targets, but cautioned members to heed to healthy practices.<\/p>\n

Miss Ne-Ormeh Nyoni reveals the promotion of a healthy lifestyle will form a pillar of the group\u2019s objectives.<\/p>\n

The GRA Ladies organised a breast cancer sensitization and screening exercise for its members to observe breast cancer awareness month.<\/p>\n

Statistics from the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital shows about 500 people are diagnosed with breast cancer annually.<\/p>\n

Women form ninety percent of the total number.<\/p>\n

Ashanti Area Director of GRA, Agnes Akosua Adu-Boateng, wants staff of the authority to serve as agents in the fight against breast cancer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going to assist those impacted by breast cancer to get them the information they need. We are also going to nurture and build a community to support and as well remain highly productive in our families and revenue generation drive\u201d, she emphasized.<\/p>\n
