Dr Dominic Ayine the Attorney General has called on Ghanaians to brace themselves for a rumble in the jungle in the next few weeks.
According to Dr Dominic Ayine, what the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB) Kwabena Adu-Boahene and his wife have done is like a “Thrilla in Manila”.
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, Dr Ayine revealed, “Ladies and gentlemen when His Excellency John Dramani Mahama the president of the Republic, observed that the entire country was a crime scene he knew what he was talking about, some people bashed him for it.
But the president knows because I brief him on it, on a constant and regular basis on what is happening with respect to our investigations. We are working diligently on several dossiers, that will shock the consent of the nation.
If what suspect Adu Boahene and his wife have done is like a “Thrilla in Manila,” please brace yourself for a rumble in the jungle in the next few weeks”, he stated.
The Attorney General has fingered the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB) Kwabena Adu-Boahene for allegedly diverting over $7m into private accounts.
According to the Attorney General, Kwabena Adu-Boahene was arrested for financial misconduct relating to a $7 million cyber defence system contract.
The Attorney General further revealed Kwabena Adu-Boahene laundered state funds through real estate investments in Accra and abroad.
The deputy Deputy Director of EOCO Raymond Archer led an arrest of the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau Mr Kwabena Adu Boahene at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA).
According to reports, Kwabena Adu Boahene was arrested a while ago on his arrival at the Kotoka International Airport.
Dr Ayine disclosed, “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 the National Security on one hand and 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.”
“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 added.
The Attorney General further added that Adu-Boahene and his wife purchased several landed properties in Ghana and abroad over the time that these monies hit their private accounts.
Moreover, Dr Dominic Ayine has also revealed that the former Chief Executive of the National Service Scheme (NSS) made a payment to a member of parliament to kill the story on the NSS ghost names scandal.

“We also have evidence that in November 2024… the CEO of the National Service Scheme and others paid a Ghanaian MP to kill the story in the media, and to defend them. Now, this is a developing story, and more of it will come out very soon,” he added.
The Attorney General further revealed that the investigation will conclude in the National Service and Sky Train scandals by the middle of April.
