A controversy has been brewing surrounding the Trade Fair site in Ghana, with Raymond Archer's business at the center of the dispute. Archer had sought a court injunction to halt the government's project at the site, but the Board successfully secured a court order to reverse the injunction.
The government's project involves the construction of the World Convention Center, which will serve as the headquarters for the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AFCFTA). This development is expected to solidify Ghana's position as a hub for international trade.
Despite the government's efforts to move forward with the project, Archer has been making baseless claims against Dr. Daniel Nii Nshia McKorley (McDan), the Board Chairman of the Trade Fair. Archer has alleged that McDan was responsible for collapsing his business.
However, reports suggest that Archer's actions were in breach of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) he signed. The MOU stated that he would vacate the premises if needed for reconstruction or development.
Archer's business dealings have been called into question, with allegations of fraudulent activities. It is reported that he rented a generator to other tenants at exorbitant rates while failing to pay his own electricity bills.
The result of Archer's actions was a debt of over GHC100,000.00 in unpaid electricity bills. This has raised concerns about Archer's business practices and his ability to manage his finances.
The controversy surrounding Archer's business has highlighted the need for transparency and accountability in business dealings. It has also underscored the importance of respecting agreements and contracts.
In the end, Archer's actions have led to his own downfall, and he has no one to blame but himself. His attempts to shift the blame to McDan have been unsuccessful, and he must now face the consequences of his own actions.
