Owner of Rock City Hotel and Minister for Food and Agriculture, Bryan Acheampong has strongly refuted claims by Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, NDC Member of Parliament for North Tongu, and Sammy Gyamfi, the National Communication Director of the NDC, that his luxurious hotel is incurring losses.
Ablakwa and Gyamfi alleged they had intercepted a document indicating the Kwahu-based hotel was not profitable.
However, Acheampong dismissed these allegations as lies in an interview with Media General journalist Nana Yaa Brefo.
He accused Ablakwa and Gyamfi of fabricating the story and challenged them to provide evidence.
Acheampong explained that Rock City has not yet filed its 2023 taxes, with the filing due by the end of June, and therefore, any claim of intercepted documents from the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) is baseless.
He expressed confidence in the hotel's financial health and called the accusations unfounded.
Furthermore, Acheampong declared that if Ablakwa could prove his claims, he would gift his Akosombo Intercontinental Hotel to the NDC MP or any orphanage of Ablakwa’s choice.
He emphasized his challenge, questioning the authenticity of the alleged documents and the credibility of the claims made by the NDC representatives.
"Rock City is not making losses. No one anywhere can say that Rock City is incurring losses. I saw Okudzeto and Sammy Gyamfi in the studio making noise. Okudzeto, wearing a smock, exaggerated that Rock City is making losses and that he has intercepted documents from the GRA."
"He has not intercepted any documents. Everything he is saying is lies. There is nothing truthful about what Okudzeto said concerning that matter. In the first place, Rock City has informed me, and I have checked with the GRA, that they have not even filed their 2023 taxes yet.
"So, they have not filed yet. Rock City has not even gone to the GRA; they plan to file at the end of the month. So where did he get the document from? What he is saying is fabricated and a lie.
"Rock City has not even filed its 2023 taxes. They are due by the end of June. So where did he get it from? Today, I am daring him," Mr. Bryan Acheampong said.
