Watch the moment Deputy Attorney-General met Kwabena Adu-Boahene at a funeral

Embattled former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), Kwabena Adu-Boahene, has been captured in a lively moment with the Deputy Minister for Justice and Deputy Attorney-General, Dr Justice Srem-Sai. The two met at the burial service for the late Sir Knight Bro, Nana Joseph Amponsah Konadu (Asantefoɔhene), father of the Director-General of the National Signals Bureau, Dr George Atta Boateng, in Berekum. Adu-Boahene, who is facing 11 charges alongside others over the alleged transfer of GH¢49 million (approximately $7 million) from the then bureau’s account into their personal accounts, was seen exchanging pleasantries with some of the dignitaries at the event. He was captured interacting with Chief of Staff Julius Debrah and Marietta Brew Appiah-Oppong, Legal Counsel to the President, before proceeding to greet the Deputy Attorney-General. When Dr Srem-Sai saw him, he stood up from his chair, warmly embraced him with a smile and exchanged a few words with him before Adu-Boahene continued greeting other dignitaries. ‘Now you know how it feels’ - Sefa Kayi takes swipe at Adjei over Sammy Gyamfi’s ‘reputation’ defence The brief interaction between the two was captured on camera during the funeral service. Adu-Boahene, Adjei-Boateng and their company face 11 charges for allegedly transferring GH¢49 million (approximately $7 million) from the bureau's account to their personal accounts. Addressing the press on Monday, March 24, 2025, Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Dr Dominic Ayine, stated that Adu-Boahene was implicated in the unauthorised transfer of $7 million, originally allocated for cybersecurity infrastructure, into his private accounts. "In his capacity as Director of the National Signals Bureau, Mr Adu-Boahene, on January 30, 2020, signed a contract on behalf of the Government of Ghana and National Security on the one hand, and on the other hand, an Israeli company named RLC Holdings Limited. The contract was for the purchase of a cyber defence system software at a price of $7 million," the Attorney General said. Providing further details, Dr Ayine disclosed that just days after signing the agreement, Adu-Boahene initiated a suspicious transaction. "On February 6, 2020, he then transferred an initial amount of GH¢27,100,000 from the National Signals Bureau account at Fidelity Bank to a private BNC account at UMB. Official documentation on the transfer reveals that the amount was for the payment of cyber defence system software. He transferred the money to his private company," he told the media in Accra. According to Dr Ayine, investigations further uncovered that the former NSB boss allegedly channelled the funds not only into his personal account but also into accounts belonging to his wife.
