This is damning – Ablakwa on CHRAJ report on National Cathedral

Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of Parliament for North Tongu, has responded to the clearance of Rev. Kusi Boateng by the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) following his earlier petition for an investigation into the National Cathedral project.

The MP expressed surprise at the CHRAJ findings, which were made public on Monday, November 25, 2025. The report revealed that allegations against Rev. Kusi Boateng, including the GH¢2.6 million payment to JNS Talent Centre Limited and claims of double passports, were unfounded.

Reacting to the report on 3FM’s Hot Issues, Hon. Ablakwa described the findings as “damning,” alleging that they confirmed offenses and irregularities in the handling of the project. “To have a project done in the name of the Almighty, superintended by reverend ministers, and produce this outcome is very damning,” Ablakwa stated. He further accused those involved of engaging in a “trade, loot, and share scheme.”

It found that the $312,394,049.53 contract awarded to Ribade Company Ltd. violated the Public Procurement Act (Act 663), rendering it illegal.
