Kwabena Adu Boahene, the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), is accused of embezzling state funds and laundering them through real estate investments in Accra, the capital of Ghana.

He's also believed to have acquired some properties outside Ghana.

Mr Adu Boahene, who served as the Deputy Director-General before becoming the substantive Director between 2017 and 2025, is alleged to have misappropriated funds through contracts he signed on behalf of the state using a similar private firm he set up.

Reports suggest that he created a private business closely resembling the operations of the National Signals Bureau, which he reportedly ran alongside his wife.
