As a parliamentary “hooligan” as someone calls us — I decided to carry out further due diligence on the now infamous Heaven Builders Limited — the company on the verge of receiving 62.14 acres out of the remaining 93 acres of plush Airport land valued in excess of US$248million.
So earlier today, I embarked on a journey to physically check out the two office addresses which have been provided by directors of Heaven Builders Limited in official documents.
The first office address which is provided in incorporation documents at the Office of the Registrar of Companies is: House Number F 17, Site 4, Community 1, Near Mary Mother of God Church, Tema.
When I arrived at this particular address at 11:30am, I was shocked to see a very ugly dilapidated residential structure which appears abandoned for many years. The decrepit structure was in a state of ruin and total disrepair.
The neglected building has been overgrown with weeds and was unmistakably a standout rickety structure on that otherwise quiet Tema street.
A squatter in a shacky boys quarters told me the building had been abandoned for more than a decade. He has been squatting for some 7 years and throughout the period, the structure had never been used for an office as misrepresented in the incorporation documents of Heaven Builders.
It is obvious that sleazy characters with fraudulent intentions deliberately misled public officials at the Office of the Registrar of Companies with this dubious non-existent “office address.”
The second Heaven Builders office address was contained on the letterhead used for their audacious recent counteroffer demanding 62.14 acres and a lease extension from 45 years to 99 years.
The letterhead indicates — Office Location: 380 Kwame Nkrumah Avenue. P. O. Box 3566, Accra-North. It is instructive that this address is different from what they presented at the Office of the Registrar of Companies.
This second address is another scam.
A thorough search of all the buildings at 380 Kwame Nkrumah Avenue did not produce Heaven Builders.
380 Kwame Nkrumah Avenue is at the heart of central Accra’s bustling commercial enclave. It is near Tudu and Kantamanto. Notable edifices on that street include Cocobod, SSNIT and NIB. On the other side of that street is the ever conspicuous Greater Accra Police Regional Headquarters.
The brigands and mosstroopers behind Heaven Builders seem very bold but not the least sophisticated.
It remains a mystery how this shady and shonky company was made such a lucrative US$248million offer of Ghana’s most treasured prime land.
Heaven Builders which claims it is capable of raising US$85million for the Ghana Airports Company Limited does not have an office, and guess what: it cannot run a website either. Despite stating in official documents that its website is: www.heavenbuilders.com.gh — this emerges as another fraudulent claim as that URL simply doesn’t exist.
I can’t wait for judgment day — and these picaroons are certainly not making it to Heaven.
For God and Country.
