President John Evans Atta Mills says he is unfazed by criticisms that he is not delivering on his promises.The President said his government has a four-year mandate to ensure that the confidence reposed in it by Ghanaians is justified.Addressing staff of the Finance Ministry, the President said his government will translate its promises into reality despite the mounting criticisms.“Criticisms there will be, noises there will be; but noises and criticism can never drown the sacred facts on the ground. We are on a journey. We have a four-year mandate and we are always aware that the people of Ghana have reposed confidence in us and the least that we can do is to ensure that we justify this confidence,” he said.President John Atta Mills paid unannounced visits to some key revenue agencies in Accra, urging staff to work hard to exceed their targets.He visited the offices of the Internal Revenue Service; Value Added Tax Secretariat; Customs, Excise & Preventive Services and the Finance Ministry.President Mills also lamented the high level of corruption within the Customs Excise and Preventive Service (CEPS).“CEPS must live up to its expectation and its standard because in quite a number of cases we are under-collecting. If I ever doubted that some of the people in CEPS were really working against the economy, what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my ears convinced me beyond any reasonable doubt that if this is a person who has sworn to work in the interest of our nation and he can boast so brazenly and even aide smugglers to carry up cocoa across the border. I am saying, my brothers and sisters, this is the time for introspection,” he said.Source: Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
