From a celebrated heart surgeon to a ‘Galamsey Manager’ – Asiedu Nketia pities Frimpong-Boateng

The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress [NDC], Johnson Asiedu Nketia says highly revered heart surgeon turned politician, Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng has been 'fooled' by his own party.

He claims Prof Frimpong-Boateng should have been celebrated by the country for his prowess as a heart Surgeon but rather been bombarded as a ‘Galamsey Manager’.

“This is a doctor who can change hearts in human beings. If he had not associated himself with the NPP, Ghana will be 'worshiping' him now,“ he said in an interview on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.

Asiedu Nketia was commenting on the Galamsey saga linked to the Minister of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovations (MESTI), Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng as the master minder with some kingpins within the NPP.

This comes on the back of the arrest of Embattled suspended Central Regional 1st Vice-Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party [NPP] in the Agona West Constituency, Horace Ekow Ewusi and five others for their alleged involvement in the disappearance of some confiscated excavators.
