To bolster its ButemboCopper project, aimed at exploiting the Bashu copper deposit in North Kivu, an area plagued by ADF activity, the company Copper Intelligence (listed on the US stock exchange) is relying on former CIA and Blackwater agent Enrique Prado and evangelist Jean Bosco Kanku Kalumbu.
On April 13 in New York, Copper Intelligence announced additions to its board of directors, according to African Discovery Group (Copper Intelligence's former name).
● Enrique "Ric" Prado is a specialist in paramilitary, counterterrorism, and clandestine operations. Ric is a 24-year CIA veteran, having served in six overseas postings. He was deputy station chief and owner of the original Bin Laden command post under senior analyst Michael Scheuer, as well as station chief in a hostile country. Ric also served as chief of operations at the CIA Counterterrorism Center (CTC) during the 9/11 attacks, where he helped coordinate CIA/CTC special operations activities with the National Security Council and the FBI, as well as with elite U.S. military representatives from Delta Force and SEAL Team 6, according to Copper Intelligence.
Prado retired as a Senior Intelligence Service-2, a CIA equivalent of a major general. He received the Distinguished Career Intelligence Medal (the highest honor awarded to a retired operations officer) and the George Bush Medal for Excellence in Counterterrorism, among other awards. Ric's memoir, "Black Ops: The Life of a CIA Shadow Warrior," is a bestseller.
● Jean Bosco Kanku Kalumbu is a multifaceted leader with extensive experience in international pastoral leadership, humanitarian diplomacy, strategic lobbying, and executive management in the mining sector in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
"Jean Bosco Kanku Kalumbu recently served as founder and senior pastor of the #Source of Salvation Church in Brussels, as well as DRC humanitarian ambassador, representing rural humanitarian priorities to national and international institutions, overseeing key programs such as agropastoral development, the installation of clean water wells, and youth employment initiatives," the document states.
My online research indicates that Jean Bosco Kanku Kalumbu is married to Sandra Mbuyi, a popular gospel singer in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
