The state has officially charged former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director-General Kwabena Adu Boahen and his wife, Angela Adjei-Boateng, with multiple financial crimes involving the alleged theft of GH₵49.1 million in public funds.
The charges, filed by the Attorney-General’s office, include stealing, defrauding by false pretences, money laundering, and conspiracy to commit a crime. Two others have also been named: Mildred Donkor, a former bank relations officer, and Advantage Solutions Limited—a company reportedly owned by the couple and allegedly used to facilitate the fraud.
Adu Boahen was arrested by EOCO at Kotoka International Airport in March upon returning from London. His wife was later picked up at EOCO headquarters when she went to enquire about his arrest.

Attorney-General Dr Dominic Ayine said the charges stem from a $7 million cyber defence system contract signed with Israeli firm RLC Holdings Limited on January 30, 2020.
Adu Boahen allegedly misappropriated the funds by transferring GHS27.1 million from a state account to a private UMB account under a company linked to him and his wife. The payment was falsely labelled as software-related.
Authorities say the laundered money was used to purchase real estate properties in Ghana and abroad. The case is expected to proceed to court soon as investigations continue.
