Private legal practitioner, Martin Kpebu, has expressed concern over how the revelations made by former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), Kwabena Adu Boahene, cast a negative light on the ruling government.
Kwabena Adu Boahene, who is currently on remand in the custody of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), revealed confidential information contained in a memo suggesting that allocation and utilisation of funds he is accused of embezzling during his tenure as Director-General of the National Signals Bureau went into some sectors of government.
The memo, which provides a detailed breakdown of the fund allocations, indicates that over GH¢8 million was allegedly used to finance an opposition political party, while an additional GH¢960,000 was reportedly paid to Members of Parliament as allowances to facilitate the passage of the National Signals Bureau (NSB) Act, among other payments made for some special operations.
Additionally, the memo revealed that an amount of GH¢5.1 million was allocated for the purchase of vehicles intended for a special aide to the president-elect.
