Accra, Jan. 25, GNA- The Customs, Excise and Preventive Service (CEPS) netted 337.20 billion cedis as revenue at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) for 2003.

This represents an increase of 12.96 per cent of the annual revenue target of 298.54 billion cedis for the year.

Mrs Nina Addy, CEPS Sector Commander of KIA Collection Office, announced this at an end-of-year reception of the Service in Accra on Saturday, during which she and six other officers were honoured for their hard work.
