Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Executive Chairman of KGL Group, Alex Dadey, has announced that the company would pay GHS 150 million in taxes to the Ghana Revenue Authority within the month, reaffirming its commitment to responsible corporate citizenship.<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr. Dadey made this known during his address on \u201cGood Corporate Citizenship in Building Sustainable African Businesses \u2014 The KGL Case Study\u201d at the Kwahu Business Forum 2026, held in the Eastern Region.<\/p>\n

In attendance were President John Mahama; Julius Debrah, Chief of Staff; Elizabeth Agyare, Minister of Trade and Agribusiness; Seth Terkper, Presidential Advisor on the Economy; Sylvester Mensah, CEO of EXIM Bank; captains of industry; and other distinguished guests.<\/p>\n

Mr. Dadey emphasized that taxation remained a vital tool for national development, enabling government to fund infrastructure, social services, and long-term economic growth.<\/p>\n

He noted that beyond being a legal obligation, tax compliance was a shared responsibility essential to building a prosperous and resilient nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cKGL is committed not only to meeting its tax obligations but to doing so in a manner that reflects our broader responsibility to national development,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Mr. Dadey highlighted the need for a fair and transparent tax system, urging all stakeholders to fulfill their obligations.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that, over the past five years, KGL had been among the few companies to consistently file its annual returns promptly and undergo comprehensive audits by the GRA.<\/p>\n

He added that the company\u2019s 2025 tax returns were filed as early as January 2025.<\/p>\n

He also cautioned against tax policies that could hinder business growth, stressing that the right balance must be struck to encourage innovation, entrepreneurship, and job creation.<\/p>\n

The announcement of the GHS 150 million tax payment has been widely viewed as a strong demonstration of corporate accountability and leadership within the private sector.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, President Mahama commended Mr. Dadey for leading by example and \u201cwalking the talk\u201d as a good corporate citizen.<\/p>\n

He urged other corporate leaders to emulate this approach and added that he looked forward to seeing the payment made at the GRA.<\/p>\n

Participants at the forum also commended KGL\u2019s approach, noting that such commitments set a positive standard for businesses across the country and the continent.<\/p>\n

KGL was one of the platinum sponsors for this year\u2019s Kwahu Business Forum.<\/p>\n
