The Chief Executive Officer of Universal Labels & Packaging Company Limited and Colour Planet Limited, Raymond Archer, has suggested that his printing press may have been targeted due to his role as a consultant.

According to Archer, he served as a consultant for an international risk management company involved in key projects in Ghana, which might have put him at risk.

Speaking on Citi TV, he explained, “I think it has more to do with my work as a consultant. I worked for a very big global risk management company and became a risk advisor to one of the key projects happening in Ghana.

"The way the business was targeted, I know that could be one of the reasons. And we are all under very strict and terrible contracts as international consultants.”

Raymond Archer's printing press was among the businesses affected by the Trade Fair demolition exercise back in 2020 to pave the way for a redevelopment project.

The renowned investigative journalist was recently nominated by President John Dramani Mahama to serve on a five-member team leading the National Democratic Congress’s Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) initiative.

The ORAL initiative is a comprehensive strategy aimed at addressing systemic corruption and financial impropriety.

It will focus on recovering misappropriated funds and resources to strengthen governance, restore public trust in state institutions, and provide much-needed fiscal space for national development.
