Hmmmm Ghana
You guys only know the cost of his emoluments. You don't know that GRA collected GHS113BILLION for the country , Ghana in 2023 financial year. Which other organisation made that money for the country? I believe his compensati ...

You’re a fool. If Ghana collected all this much money, why did the country recently received $600 million loan from the World Bank? Stop talking and making up nonsense by defending these crooks parading and pretending to w ...

Some Ghanaians always kill the mosquito will a sledge hammer. Question, is he the only GRA boss earning that pay? What about his predecessors? Go back and get that information .
In Africa most countries internal generated fund cannot even cater for the yearly budget and therefore when the IGF is mismanaged,more money is needed for balancing the budget.That is the reasons for loans and other financial ...

What an idiot? Elon Musk’s TOTAL net worth is barely USD $200 billion, so you are saying he is earning about 1/2 of his net worth. And most of his money is tied to his Twitter/X and Tesla stocks and not actual liquid cash g ...

Actually gra Aldo has a performance based remuneration. When they exceed their revenue they share a percentage of the excess.
There is also an incentive for caging tax evaders
Because they collected billion for the country they should be allowed to chop the collected amount??? Are you correct mentally ?
Elon Musk is a private investor. GRA is a government entity and there is nothing like performance based incentive. In the USA, the Director General of the IRS is not the highest paid person in the country. Think before you wr ...

and what was that GH113B used for if I may ask
You are very sick in your head. Fools like you are enemies of the state.
The stupidity of a Ghanaian that never reasons and does not know the meaning of "earning" or "salary". What a fool.
How about our medical officers and other health workers saving millions of Ghanaians lives.
This makes sense
What a stupid comment!
Who is this stupid idiot
Are you responding to the piece or you are writing for the sake of writing? Do you think they are making these amounts because of their work? They work for the government. They are not entrepreneurs. They are public servants ...

Adɛn, Ghana !!!. One man's monthly salary and allowances can pay the salaries if all the teachers in a region in a year. What on earth is his contribution to Ghana's development? Is he in charge of the rains we experience i ...

You are worried about his earnings, but Despite all this moneys he may be also stealing government money.
On point, Bro. That's the problem! GRA alone with their CEPS officers have fleeced the country more than people could ever imagine.
I have a cousin and Uncles in the CEPS and anytime I raise the problem of rampant corrupt ...

So you are worried about his salary and emoluments, right? That is the by-product of education. You should rather be worried about the useless parliament and political office holders who pay themselves Ex-Gratia every four y ...

Wow. Can he chop all that every month?
That is the benefit of education.
Is more educated than the professors that educated him? They should also bring his monthly outputs made into the country economy and let's jextapose it, whether his contribution to Ghana merits the benefits. The least said ab ...

YOU SEEM UNWISE, THE BENEFIT OF EDUCATION, HOW MUCH IS PROFESSOR GYAMPO MAKING??? YOU WILL DEFEND CORRUPT PRACTICES WITH UR USELESS LIFE...SMH
God help us
Boss even cry for help. He knows so many matters that he can't get sacked. He knows Databank and the like. Does SML pay Tax at all? Okuzeto wake up.
This is outrageous, how can one person earn this amount in a month in Ghana? What at all is he offering Ghana that no one can offer?
This man is getting paid an amount comparable to the highest paid government employees in one of the richest countries on this planet - United States Internal Revenue Service. Sick. This is a developing country.
What's inconvenience allowance? DSTV premium is 600 GHC,why is his 700 ghc? How many workers also collect these allowances? Education workers are on strike for just 2 allowances but here you cannot count the number of allowan ...

This country belongs to a few selected individuals, but people don't know. The day NDC and NPP leave Ghana, that is the day Ghanaians will know what is happening.
Whoever approved this salary and allowances for this man deserves to die and go to hell.
When we heard off Dr. Opuni's 50.000 cedis a month salary at cocoa board the who country was crying foul.now some one x the second not the first highest paid at 137.000 and coins...we ain't see nothing yet.
He was a thief
Yes Umofia is a jungle the fittest survives ..kokofu football
How much remuneration is his deputy also on? The civil servants are killing Ghana.
All present and past leaders of Ghana are fools, idiot's, greedy who climbed into power for their stupid stomach.
No wonder upon all the loans and taxes they revive we are still at the imf. How can you be paying such huge salaries to individuals when the minimum wage is still hovering around 50 gh per day. What in the world is this?
God help you sen? What is $11,000?
This is why Ghana is poor. Even America the richest country on earth will not give such a enumeration to any employee. This is nonsense
I’m shock one person claimed all this huge amount every month eei Ghana when
Stupid country
You and your boss Abosam go punish you.haba greedy people. And he says he is Reverend my ass
Reverend Father indeed. God is watching
If Ghana's constitution guarantees such madness under any government then why're some hoodlums disturbing our ears with fix the country nonsense. Where would we find money to fix the country when every tax we take is going in ...

Some Ghanaians just believe everything they read in the News Papers. Fact is,, not everything they publish is True. At times,, we must think logically.. I personally don't believe he's getting everything they wrote.
Have you ever worked in the Public Service?
Pure criminal
This man call himself Rev.
Is this information verified?
What in the world is responsibility and inconvenience allowance? Why did he accept the job if he thought he wasn't responsible for his job duties? Did he think any job is convenient?
Aba Ghana? Why do our leaders do this t ...

Shame ! He cannot even mention his real age at the public accounts committee. And he calls himself a pastor
Didn't you hear him say he turned 62 in October 2023 ? In October 2021 his children held a 60th birthday party at labadi beach hotel openly, so what's your headache?
H3333, Ghana
Wow! We’re sitting on money indeed. The youth should shine their eyes.

There is nothing wrong with his salary. His position is a very sensitive position that remits his salary.

Internal Slavery; worse than colonialism and the slave trade. Animal kingdom.

Theives all over even if they are tittiled as Reverend. What a stupid country!!!
We're a sick country, nothing is working yet people like GRAboss makes so much money...our streets are undrivable,gutters are choked, the list goes on. Arise Ghana from slumber
I agree with you. Public service is used as a comfort source for many. Why are public servants in top positions paid so much. Some of the allowances are as vulgar as the words from a prostitute.
We keep crying about our problems and lack of progress having to do with the colonial trespassers, but the real problem in Ghana has to do with mis-educated entitled corrupt thieving looters who wrongly believe that the masse ...

The Ghana Revenue Authority is this quack pastor's avenue for fleecing the Ghanaian public. No wonder he never bothered to set up his own church.
This man is over 70 years, carefully zoom the picture and watch carefully. Please, retire if you're really a Reverend and you know the truth.
His children organized his 60th birthday party for him in 2021 on 10th October openly . So you can go to Labadi beach hotel and accrtain things for yourself
Write your comment ghana chop the go. Only one person
This remuneration of the GRA boss has been in existence since 1957.
This is not news

What country are we living in where the monthly income of the privileged few is about 30 times that of the average worker? It is a rip-off.
This is standard for who ever is appointment whether by NDC or NPP. Politics has blinded us.
