Authorities at Ghana’s digital addressing system, Ghana Post GPS are cautioning the general public against imposters going round to generate the Ghana Post Addresses for homes at a cost.
According to the authorities, some persons are taking advantage of the recent sensitisation exercise conducted by the institution to extort money from vulnerable citizens.
Management of Ghana Post has begun a nationwide exercise to register Ghanaians on its digital address system.
In an interview with the media, the Corporate Head of Communications at Ghana Post, Kobihemaa Osisiadan Bekoe, warned Ghanaians to be alert and watchful of such persons.
“Tagging plates are optional so if you don’t want it and we take you through the processes and you know how to generate your digital address, or we help you generate it, then we write it [for you]. If you want us to write on your wall that is your request, we will write it for you. If you want to save it on your phone, we will help you save it,” he explained.
The Ghana Post Digital Address Tagging plate is being made available to residences for a fee of GHc50 and GHc100 for residential buildings and commercial offices, respectively, upon request.
