Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Dominic Ayine, has hinted at a series of high-profile corruption cases set to be exposed in the coming weeks, cautioning Ghanaians to prepare for shocking revelations of financial misconduct and abuse of power by former government officials.

Speaking at a press conference on Monday, March 24, Ayine disclosed that ongoing investigations have uncovered alarming cases of illicit transactions within key state institutions.

His comments come in the wake of the arrest of Kwabena Adu-Boahene, former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), who is accused of diverting $7 million intended for a cyber defense system into private accounts.

According to Ayine, the Adu-Boahene case is only the tip of the iceberg, with more startling revelations expected soon.

“We are working diligently on several dossiers that will shock the conscience of the nation. If what suspect Adu-Boahene and his wife have done is like a Thrilla in Manila, please brace yourself for a Ramble in the Jungle in the next few weeks,” he stated.

Investigations have revealed that in January 2020, Adu-Boahene signed a contract on behalf of the government with Israeli firm RLC Holdings Limited for the procurement of cyber defense software valued at $7 million. However, instead of executing the contract, he allegedly transferred GH¢27.1 million from the NSB’s Fidelity Bank account into a private BNC account at Universal Merchant Bank (UMB).

As the probe widens, Ayine reaffirmed the government’s commitment to holding accountable those implicated in financial mismanagement.
