As part of an ongoing investigation into claims of having several identities, the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) has apprehended Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng, also known as Kwabena Adu Gyamfi.
The scandal involving Rev. Kusi Boateng began in 2023 when Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, a former MP from North Tongu who is currently the Foreign Affairs Minister, claimed in an exposé that the National Cathedral’s secretary to the board of trustees had several passports under several identities.
“Rev. Victor Kusi-Boateng, AKA Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, uses multiple passports and multiple identification cards with different names and different dates of birth as his special modus operandi,” Ablakwa wrote in a Facebook post, citing impregnable and irreproachable documents in his possession.
Ablakwa further asserted that under the alias Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, Rev. Kusi Boateng’s company, JNS Talent Centre Ltd., was given GH¢2.6 million for the National Cathedral project.
He claims to have evidence attesting to the fact that Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng and Kwabena Adu Gyamfi were the same person. Boateng remains an Executive Council Member and Director of the National Cathedral Board in spite of these accusations.
Rev. Kusi Boateng’s attempt to stop MP Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa from speaking publicly about his involvement in the National Cathedral problems was denied by the Human Rights Court on July 13, 2024.
Sources indicate that the inquiry is centered on his claimed dual identity, even if the precise charges against him have not been made public.
