Ex-NSB boss arrested for alleged $2.2m money laundering

The former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), Mr. Kwabena Adu Boahen, has been accused of laundering over $2.2 million in real estate investments.

According to the Minister of Justice and Attorney-General, Dr. Dominic Ayine, Mr. Boahen allegedly misappropriated state funds through contracts he signed on behalf of the state, using a private firm he established.

Dr. Ayine said the former Director-General invested the laundered funds in properties in Accra and abroad, with the majority located in La and along the Accra-Akosombo road.

Mr. Boahen, who served as Director-General between 2017 and 2025, was arrested on March 20 at the Kotoko International Airport upon his return from abroad and is currently in detention.

The Attorney-General’s revelation was made during a press conference on Monday, where he also disclosed the activities of the defunct anti-corruption agency, Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL).
