The Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has threatened to expose what he calls “mother of all cathedral scandals”in relation to the building of the National Cathedral.
The MP in a Facebook post on Sunday said he will publish details of the scandal on Monday at 5:00am via his Facebook account.
“Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them,” he quoted Ephesians 5:11.
The MP has been a known critic of the construction of the National Cathedral. He has been publishing documents on what he terms ‘shady’ contracts on the project.
The latest was an alleged payment made to owners of a crèche based in Dawhenya, Accra.
According to a Facebook post, the legislator revealed that a whopping GH¢2.6 million was dished out to a company named JNS Talent Centre Limited.
This, per his expose, did not include the nature of work done to merit such an amount.
“According to incorporation details in my possession, JNS Talent Centre Limited’s given registration number is CS695622015. Its directors are: Johannes Eshun, Sheila Eshun and Kwabena Adu Gyamfi. The registered principal activity of JNS Talent Centre Limited is listed as “Talent and Skills Development Training,” he wrote on his Facebook wall last Wednesday.
In the statement, the Ranking Member of Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee insisted that JNS Talent Centre Limited has a stated capital of GH¢500 with no “track record in construction neither does it have the capacity for architectural designs or related services.”
