Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) officers have arrested a man at a border post. He was caught trying to bring 100 bags of rice into the country.
The rice was concealed within bags of cement. This was done to hide the goods from customs officials.
The GRA task force was responsible for the interception at the border.
Smuggling goods like rice is illegal and can harm local businesses.
The GRA works to ensure that all goods entering Ghana are properly declared and taxed.
This action is part of efforts to enforce trade laws and prevent revenue loss.
The suspect is now in custody and facing charges related to smuggling.
Further investigations will determine the full extent of the operation.
