Postal Rates May Double Soon

The management of the Ghana Postal Services Corporation (Ghana Post) spent last week brainstorming on how it can efficiently serve its customers in the wake of the 90.4 per cent rise in fuel prices.

Mr. Isaac Adu-Boahene, Director-General of Ghana Post, who discussed the old and projected monthly fuel costs in an interview with the paper, hinted at a possible increase in postal service tariffs to help recover cost.

Mr. Adu-Boahene would not give figures as yet but explained that besides fuel prices other factors such as airfreight could necessitate an increase in postal tariffs.
