Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has disclosed that the individuals responsible for the Frontiers Covid-19 Airport testing service are the same individuals involved in the “airport land grab” associated with the Heaven scandal.
In the second installment of “The Heaven Scandal,” Mr. Ablakwa stated that since the release of Part 1 and his subsequent discussions on X Spaces, many people have been inquiring about the identity of the individuals behind Heaven Builders Limited. In the spirit of transparency, accountability, and parliamentary oversight, he pledged to provide full disclosure and has obtained the incorporation documents of Heaven Builders Limited.
In a facebook post,he said “there is more bombshell: deep throat unimpeachable sources within the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia administration have revealed to me that the same ‘lootocratic’ brigands who were behind the infamous Frontiers COVID-19 Airport testing heist are the same promoters of this unconscionable Airport land grab.”
Mr. Ablakwa revealed that Heaven Builders was acquired and assumed by its present directors on April 17, 2018. He also pointed out that the stated capital of Heaven Builders Limited, which has been offered and allocated prime Airport lands valued at over US$150 million, amounts to a mere GHS5,000.00.
Based on the incorporation documents, he observed that Heaven Builders Limited has plans to have just one employee.
“With one employee, a stated capital of a measly GHS5,000 and absolutely no track record — President Akufo-Addo, Vice President Bawumia, Finance Minister Ken Ofori Atta and their collaborators at the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) believe Heaven Builders have the best capacity to be Anchor Developers and new owners of 62 acres of prime Airport land.”
To provide clarity and a better understanding of the situation, Mr. Ablakwa specified that the 93-acre prime land in question is situated with boundaries as follows: it is bounded on the west by the Airport By-pass Road, on the south by the Airport Road, on the north by a rail line, and on the east by the terminals 1 and 2 tarmac.
He pointed out that in close proximity to this “giveaway” prime land to Heaven Builders are prominent businesses and well-known brands, including Marriott Hotel, Holiday Inn, Accra Mall, Marina Mall, and the head offices of Stanbic, Vodafone, and Nestle.
“The unholy Frontiers-Heaven Builders connection cannot be dismissed as mere conspiracy theory when a careful study of the incorporation documents of both companies reveal that both companies have the same witness in the person of Edward Charles Appiah with the same address.”
Furthermore, Mr Ablakwa emphasized that he shall return to other “modus operandi” of this same Ghana/Nigeria “lootocratic picaroons” in later publications.
He however confirmed that two reputable independent professional entities have delivered reasoned professional assessments of the Heaven Builders deal to the GACL.
The North Tongu legislator revealed that they have both vehemently disagreed with the counteroffer of Heaven Builders wherein they demand 62 acres.
“The two independent professional entities are Brightwater Property Investment Limited and the renowned Ghana Institution of Surveyors. Brightwater’s assessment was delivered on July 25, 2023 and signed by its Director, Osafo Gyimah.”
Furthermore, Mr. Ablakwa highlighted that the Ghana Institution of Surveyors delivered their damning assessment to the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) on July 24, 2023. This assessment was co-signed by Surv. Dr. Frank Gyamfi-Yeboah, FGhIS (on behalf of Pacific Real Estate Advisors) and Surv. Yaw Osei-Wusu Peprah, MRICS, MGhIS (representing Assenta Property Consulting).
According to Mr. Ablakwa, both professional organizations share the view that even if the Heaven Builders deal were to proceed, the valuation placed on Heaven Builders was “extremely low.” They opined that Heaven Builders should not be entitled to more than 40 acres, even if they could actually raise the US$85 million proposed.
“Interestingly, whereas Heaven Builders was claiming an acre should be valued at an average US$1.3million, the Ghana Institution of Surveyors report contains real purchases within that vicinity far in excess including a 1.75 acre which sold at US$6.3million as far back as 2019.”
Mr. Ablakwa expressed his appreciation for the patriotic and professional service rendered by Brightwater Property Investment Limited and the Ghana Institution of Surveyors. He acknowledged their efforts and called upon everyone to come together and prevent this “grand looting” of prime lands.
“The NDC caucus in Parliament stands ready to totally scuttle this corrupt land grab in the next few days when the House resumes. Ghana must remain a democracy not a lootocracy. This is not a deal from Heaven, it has every trait of a deal from Satan’s Hell.”
