The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has cleared Reverend Victor Kusi Boateng of allegations regarding holding dual passports under different names.
In January 2023, North Tongu MP Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa filed a petition with CHRAJ to investigate Rev. Kusi Boateng, Secretary to the National Cathedral Board of Trustees, over allegations of conflict of interest, possession of multiple identities, and other misconduct.
However, the CHRAJ report found that Rev. Kusi Boateng, also known as Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, holds only one passport under the latter name. The Commission stated that there was no evidence supporting claims of a second passport issued under the name Kusi Boateng, as alleged by Ablakwa.
The petition also raised concerns about the transfer of GH¢2.6 million from the National Cathedral Secretariat to JNS Talent Centre Limited, a company associated with Rev. Kusi Boateng under his alternative identity.
CHRAJ’s investigation revealed that no services were rendered by JNS Talent Centre for this payment. Instead, it determined that the funds were a reimbursement to Rev. Kusi Boateng, who had advanced payments to contractors working on the National Cathedral project when the Secretariat faced financial challenges.
The Commission concluded there was no basis for allegations of wrongdoing in the transactions.
