CONFLICT OF INTEREST: Frimpong Boateng exposed as Director of Galamsey Mine.

Details picked up by Whatsup News shows that Professor Kwabena Frimpong Boateng, the man tasked with stopping illegal gold mining companies own one himself in the name of Symphony Mining Limited.
The company which claims its Chief Executive Officer is Joojo Frimpong Boateng-the second child of Prof. Frimpong Boateng, has his father as a Director of the company, in what exposes an elaborate fronting.
Professor Boateng is the Chairman of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM) formed in 2017 to stop activities of illegal and unregulated gold mining companies. He is also the Minister of Environment Science and Technology (MEST). He recently signed a document addressed to the Minerals Commission asking for two out of five concessions available to be given to his company, Symphony Mining Limited.
In the letter, seen by Whatsup News, after officially asking for the concession, the signatory to that private request was “K.Frimpong-Boateng”. Ordinarily, the name could have passed for any of his family members, but a telephone number attached to the letter gave the Minister away.
The telephone number 0244330049 is said to belong to the IMCIM chairman. A call to that number by Whatsup News did not connect.
However, a US-based Ghanaian mining expert and whistleblower, Solomon Owusu, insists that that is Prof. Frimpong Boateng’s number. “Do you know why I got to know that it is his company? He put his cell phone number [on the letter]. I have it on my phone, I know his cell phone number and that is Prof. Kwabena Frimpong Boateng’s number,” Solomon Owusu stated on Saturday on online live radio streaming network, “With All Due Respect Radio”.
Solomon Owusu who was formerly a member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and a consultant who worked directly with Professor Frimpong Boateng, says there is no way he will mistake that number.
“That is to show that the person who is to make sure that mining is done correctly, he owns a mining company,” he said in the explosive revelation.
Already, Professor Frimpong Boateng had been exposed when a leaked video last week captured him owning up to distribution supposedly missing mining excavators to cronies of the ruling party to undertake illegal mining.
Apparently, these officially endorsed illegal miners were working to remit money into the coffers of the ruling party, as stated in the video.
