During the African Nations Cup held in Ghana in the year 2008, a hotel in Tema by name Daha Hotel, received reservation orders from a Ghanaian Company by name Akwantupa Travel and Tours Limited, acting as agents of a supporters' group in La Cote D'Ivoire for fifty (50) double-room reservation for fifteen (15) days beginning from the opening date of the tournament. The hotel already had thirty-five (35) rooms made up of thirty (10) double rooms and five (25) single rooms, so management decided to expand the facilities by the construction of twenty (20) more double rooms and five (5) extra single rooms to cater for the group. The rate per night of each double room as agreed between the hotel management and the supporters group from La Cote D'Ivoire was GH180/00 per night.

The hotel entered in to a contract with Blagogee Construction Limited (a building construction firm in Tema), for the construction of the extra rooms and the renovation of the entire hotel to host the 50-man supporters' group from La Cote D'Ivoire. The Blagogee Construction Company was represented by its Board Secretary, Mr. Anumde, who negotiated and executed the contract between his company and the hotel.

The contractors charged GH500,000.00 for the job and promised to complete it four clear weeks before the opening of the tournament on condition that the hotel pays eighty percent (80%) of the contract sum, which was GH400.000.00, upon the execution of the contract. The hotel duly paid the 80% of the contract sum as agreed on the very day the agreement was executed. The money was received on behalf of the company Secretary, Mr. Anumde.

On receipt of the advance payment, Mr. Anumde traveled to Accra and bought a brand new Range Rover for himself and a Honda Civic Saloon car for his wife. For about two (2) months, Mr. Anumde left town and was nowhere to be found. The Construction Company was not able to construct even a single room as agreed. The hotel could not therefore host the supporters' group from La Cote D'Ivoire as agreed. The group was forced to re-locate to Kasoa and the hotel lost all its investments plus profits it would have derived or made from the contract between it and the supporters' group. The hotel is contemplating dragging the Construction Company to court for its losses.
