Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng, Secretary to the Board of Trustees of the National Cathedral, was on Thursday invited by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) over allegations of possessing multiple identities.
This development is the latest twist in a controversy that has been brewing since 2023.
He was reportedly released by NIB on the same day.
The saga began when North Tongu MP, now Foreign Affairs Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, alleged in an exposé that Rev. Kusi Boateng held multiple passports under different names.
However, the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) investigations exonerated him of possessing multiple passports with different identities.
Okudzeto Ablakwa stated, “From unassailable and irreproachable documents in my possession, 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 further claimed that JNS Talent Centre Ltd, a company owned by Rev. Kusi Boateng, received GH¢2.6 million for the National Cathedral project under the pseudonym Kwabena Adu Gyamfi.
According to Ablakwa, documents in his possession confirmed that Kwabena Adu Gyamfi and Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng were the same individual.
Despite these allegations, Rev. Kusi Boateng continued to serve as an Executive Council Member/Director of the National Cathedral Board.
The arrest of Rev. Kusi Boateng by the NIB marks a significant turning point in this saga.
While the specific charges against him remain undisclosed, sources suggest that the investigation is focused on his alleged dual identity.
