The host of “Good Evening Ghana” on Metro TV, Paul Adom-Otchere, talked about Kwabena Adu-Boahen’s embezzled money, which he claims he utilized on several political parties after being arrested.
According to the documents displayed on the program, some of the money purportedly embezzled by Kwabena Adu-Boahen was used to buy cars for the aides of former President Mahama.
On the show, Paul Adom-Otchere displayed some of the leaked documents that included the models, year of purchase, and quantity of cars that were bought for individuals and political parties.
The Former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahen is currently dealing with grave accusations of fraud and embezzlement.
The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) conducted investigations that showed he reportedly transferred about GHS 49 million, or about $7 million, in state funds into his personal accounts.
Originally intended for a cyber security system contract with ISC Holdings Limited, an Israeli business, these money were instead transferred through BNC Communications Bureau Limited, a private company connected to Adu-Boahen and his spouse.
According to reports, only GHS 9.5 million was moved to ISC Holdings; the rest was allegedly utilized for private investments and unreported activities.

Additional allegations are that, Adu-Boahen purchased more than 20 properties with the embezzled money, including 27 homes in Oyarifa that were reportedly worth $295,000 each. On March 21, 2025, he was taken into custody at Kotoka International Airport while attempting to use the Commercially Important Persons (CIP) terminal.
Even though these accusations are grave, there is currently no proof that the money that was embezzled was used to buy cars for President Mahama’s aides during the election campaign.
Mustapha Gbande, the deputy general secretary of the National Democratic Congress, has responded angrily, claiming that Kwabena Adu-Boahen is using these tactics to deflect attention from the main issue and to divert it.
