The Office of the Attorney General has closed its case against former National Signals Bureau Director General Kwabena Adu-Boahene, his wife Angela Adjei-Boateng, and Advantage Solutions Limited, who are accused of stealing GH¢49.1 million in a purported cybersecurity system deal for Ghana. The court has set September 25, 2026 as the deadline for the defence to file a submission of no case to answer, with a ruling on the submission scheduled for November 5, 2026.
The prosecution has closed its case against former National Signals Bureau boss Kwabena Adu Boahene, his wife, and their company, after calling four witnesses to support 11 financial offence charges related to the alleged theft of GH¢49.1 million intended for cybersecurity software purchase. Evidence presented included testimony from a driver, the NSB head of finance, and witnesses detailing fund transfers and the accused's private spending.
An EOCO investigator testified in the Accra High Court that a letter presented by former National Signals Bureau boss Kwabena Adu Boahene as evidence of purchasing a cybersecurity system is fake, with forensic analysis showing it had no contact details, no signatory, and differed from genuine letters from the same entity. The prosecution has now closed its case after presenting four witnesses in support of 11 financial charges relating to alleged stealing of GH¢49.1 million earmarked for cybersecurity software.
The Accra High Court has given counsel for former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahen a final opportunity to conclude cross-examination of the fourth prosecution witness, EOCO Staff Officer Frank Marshall Cromwell, with proceedings adjourned to Wednesday, September 2, 2026. The decision follows repeated requests by counsel Samuel Atta Akyea for additional time, including extensions granted on multiple occasions since July 2026.
The Accra High Court has dismissed an application by former Signals Bureau Director-General Kwadwo Adu Boahene to adjourn his trial while the Supreme Court reviews a case on legal vacation rules. The judge ruled that the Supreme Court's earlier decision on the matter remained binding and found no rule requiring the trial to be suspended pending the review application.
Samuel Atta Akyea, lead counsel for former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene, rejected accusations from the Deputy Attorney-General that the defence is using tactics including legal vacation to slow the trial, stating the defence has consistently attended court and wants justice upheld.
Lawyer Samuel Atta Akyea has asked the Chief Justice to withdraw a directive allowing the criminal trial of former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene to continue during the legal vacation, arguing his legal team cannot attend scheduled hearings in August and that the case should be adjourned like other cases pending until October or November 2026.
Deputy Attorney-General Dr Justice Srem-Sai has dismissed claims that the criminal case against former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene is complex, saying the prosecution's case is simple and based on clear evidence. He alleges public funds meant for defence equipment were transferred to a private account and used for personal acquisitions including houses and high-end cars.
Deputy Attorney-General Dr Justice Srem-Sai has alleged a deliberate public and media campaign to misrepresent the criminal prosecution of former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene, insisting the case is straightforward. Adu-Boahene and his wife were charged in 2025 with corruption offences involving GHS49 million, accused of diverting public funds earmarked for defence equipment purchases into a private account.
The Attorney-General's Office has admitted to the High Court that it does not possess key documents relating to the disputed GH¢49.1 million transaction at the centre of the prosecution's case against former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene and two others. The disclosure followed a Court of Appeal order directing the prosecution to produce missing bank statements, records relating to the source and purpose of the funds, and other documents essential to the defence.
An EOCO investigator testified in the Accra High Court that former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu Boahene's claim that GH¢49.1 million meant for cybersecurity software was spent on special operations lacked investigation support and was an afterthought. The witness alleged the funds were diverted through private accounts and withdrawn by individuals on Adu Boahene's instructions, with nearly all exhausted by August 2020.
An EOCO investigator told Accra High Court that the National Signals Bureau never received the cyber defence system for which GH¢49.1 million was spent in 2020, with only GH¢9,537,500 of the funds transferred to the Israeli supplier and the remainder allegedly used for personal purposes by former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene and associates.
Mildred Donkor, a prosecution witness in the trial of Kwabena Adu-Boahene and two others, testified that UMB Bank branches could not independently transfer funds between themselves; such approvals could only come from headquarters. The witness acknowledged that Adu-Boahene and his wife had a special banking relationship with the bank that facilitated certain transactions, but rejected defence suggestions that fund movements through various companies were intended to create a complex network for their benefit.
Mildred Donkor, a prosecution witness in the trial of former NSB Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene and his wife Angela Adjei-Boateng, testified that her provision of cash withdrawal and deposit assistance to Adu-Boahene while at Universal Merchant Bank was not irregular or illegal, describing it as normal banking service. Adu-Boahene and his wife face 11 counts including conspiracy to commit crime, stealing, money laundering, and causing financial loss to the state over alleged theft of GH$49.1 million.
Mildred Donkor, the third prosecution witness in the trial of former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene and two others, confirmed that authorised withdrawals would appear in bank statements and that payments to Gerald Osei Tutu totalled GH¢4.4 million. The prosecution alleges GH¢49.1 million in public funds were unlawfully diverted through cheques into accounts allegedly controlled by the accused.
A prosecution witness in the trial of former NSB boss Kwabena Adu-Boahene testified that a GH¢7.2 million transfer was paid into the Director of the National Signals Bureau's personal account rather than the institution's general account, maintaining this position during cross-examination.
The High Court's Specialised Division has rejected attempts by lawyers for Kwabena Adu-Boahene and other accused persons to tender email communications and pension payment receipts as evidence in the National Signals Bureau trial, with the prosecution arguing the documents were irrelevant to the charges.
