Rev. Kusi Boateng has gone to Court of Appeal in privacy breach case - Ablakwa discloses

Victor Kusi Boateng and Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa

North Tongu Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has given updates on three separate court cases he is engaged in with a top official of the National Cathedral of Ghana project.

Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng, member and secretary to the project's board of trustees, lost one of the cases relative to an accusation that Ablakwa's publishing of his identity documents amounted to a breach of his privacy.

But the Accra High Court in May 2023 threw out the case principally stating that it could not ascertain whether Kusi Boateng was the applicant in the case or Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, a name that the he uses concurrently.

On the June 14, 2024 edition of Metro TV's Good Morning Ghana programme, Ablakwa revealed that the Secretary to the Board of Trustees of the National Cathedral has appealed the High Court ruling.

"In the Human Rights Court case he said I have breached his privacy, why should I publish his private documents... the judge told him you have come to waste our time. I can't even tell who you are, whether you are Victor Kusi Boateng or Kwabena Adu Gyamfi.

"I went through it and the court awarded me 10,000 cedis and warned his lawyers, do you know he has appealed?" he told programme host Randy Abbey.

"That is the latest development. (He has appealed) to the Appeal Court of Ghana, I will meet him there," Ablakwa stressed.
