The founder of the New Force, Nana Kwame Bediako, has denied tax evasion claims by the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).
The leader of the New Force made headlines in the state newspapers for his failure to file personal income tax returns from 2013 to 2016, and was fined an amount of GH¢50,000.
Also, the publication dated January 18 read, “Despite settling a sum of GH¢209,171 between 2018 and 2020, he once again failed to file his returns for the post-2020 period.”
Again, the publication added that for the years 2021-2022, the GRA estimated Cheddar’s tax assessment to be GH¢2,088,228 and GH¢5,096,536 respectively, along with penalties for his failure to file his personal income tax returns.
But Mr Bediako believes that the GRA wanted to disgrace him and tarnish his reputation, suggesting that he was being targeted despite being one of the few individuals consistently paying his taxes.
