Rev Kusi Boateng saga: Double identity individuals are drug barons; let’s not romanticize it — Amaliba fires

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) legal team member Abraham Amaliba has referred to the Rev. Kusi Boateng/Adu Gyamfi double identity issue as appalling.

According to Mr. Amaliba, such behaviors are unlawful.

He said individuals who walk with double identities are often drug barons who ought to be imprisoned.

Speaking in an interview with TV3 on July 21, he stated, “Let’s not romanticize this, the people I know in this world who have such dual citizenship and use it interchangeably or concurrently, are drug barons. The Mexican drug barons, that’s how they do to escape security. So let’s not romanticize it at all, this was done for a purpose to either invade tax. He might have done this, to escape from some illegal activities which he might have done so the use of the two names which are not aka or whatever but they are two names ascribed to one person is clearly a criminally intended usage of two names."

“You will notice that the court, when he went for a defamation action and the court even said that I don’t know who I should protect,” Abraham Amaliba stated.

NDC Member of Parliament(MP) for the North Tongu constituency, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has indicted President Akufo-Addo, Chief of Staff, Frema Opare and the Executive Secretary to the President, Nana Asante Bediatuo for being part of the alleged double identity of Rev. Kusi Boateng, also known as Kwabena Adu Gyamfi.

According to Okudzeto Ablakwa, he has obtained documents from the Presidency which confirm that President Akufo-Addo, his Secretary Nana Asante Bediatuo and Chief of Staff, Madam Frema Osei Opare all knew about the double identity scheme of Secretary of the National Cathedral of Ghana Board of Trustee.

The MP stressed that the presidency got to know about the scheme of the Man of God during the presidential approval process to grant him a diplomatic passport.

In a series of posts on his Twitter handle, the NDC MP said the presidency did not raise objections on the conduct which the Human Rights Court has described as bordering on criminality.
