The immediate past Director-General of the National Signal Bureau (NSB) of the National Security Council, Mr Kwabena Adu-Boahene, will soon be arraigned for allegedly diverting about GH¢40 million of state money into his personal bank account.

This was announced by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Dr Dominic Akuru­tinga Ayine, at a press briefing in Accra yesterday.

He said on January 30, 2020, Mr Adu-Boahene in his ca­pacity as Director of the NSB formerly known as the Bureau of National Communication (BNC), signed a contract on behalf of the Government of Ghana and National Security Council, on one hand, and, on the other hand, an Israeli com­pany called ISC Holdings Ltd.

He said the contract was for the purchase of a "Cyber Defence System Software" at a price of US$ 7 million.
