Former Director of the National Signals Bureau, Kwabena Adu-Boahene, has broken his silence amid swirling allegations that he misappropriated GH¢49.1 million during his tenure.

In a letter addressed to the National Security Coordinator, which has surfaced in the media, Adu-Boahene firmly denied any wrongdoing and offered what he described as a reluctant but necessary explanation to protect his reputation.

According to him, the funds in question were not diverted for personal gain but were channelled into critical national operations through two separate accounts created by National Security.

One account, he said, belonged to the Bureau of National Communications and was meant for special operations.
