An old video of the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB) Kwabena Adu-Boahene has surfaced after Attorney General Dr Dominic Ayine’s media briefing yesterday.
In the viral video that has surfaced, Adu Boahene was captured speaking to some men of God of the Assemblies of Ghana Church.
According to him, the reason why people are not successful is because they don’t know how to seize opportunities to their advantage.
Speaking to the men of God, Adu Boahene stated, “What have I learnt in my young life, I see that opportunity must always be seized, we must always seize opportunities. We are aware that everybody is blessed it is very true, you are pastors and you know more than I am.
When God created us. God actually blessed us from the start, we should be fruitful, multiply and take dominion over all of the earth, so the blessing is already there.
But the difference between successful people and people who are not successful is an opportunity and how you are able to seize it to your advantage, this is why Solomon mentions, he is trying to say that people are successful not just because they were meant to be successful, but time and opportunity or other say chance happens to them all. Time and opportunity will happen to all of us sat here today, time and opportunity happened to me”, he added.
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.
Meanwhile, Deputy Attorney General Dr. Justice Srem-Sai has revealed Kwabena Adu Boahene and his wife, Angela Adjei Boateng are in custody despite being granted bail.
Dr Justice Srem-Sai revealed that the two are yet to fulfil their bail conditions.
