Angela Adjei Boateng is a Ghanaian businesswoman and the wife of Kwabena Adu-Boahen, the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB).
While she had maintained a relatively low public profile, her name surfaced in headlines following serious corruption and money laundering charges brought against her and her husband in 2025.
Angela is not just the spouse of a former top security official—she is also a director and co-owner of Advantage Solutions Limited, a company central to the allegations. According to court documents, between 2020 and 2023, over GH¢49 million in state funds meant for a national cybersecurity project were allegedly diverted through Advantage Solutions. Prosecutors claim that the funds were misused for personal gains, including real estate, treasury bill investments, and luxury vehicles.
Angela has been charged with conspiracy to commit a crime, specifically using public office for profit, as well as conspiracy to commit money laundering. Her legal team argues that she is a respected entrepreneur being wrongfully portrayed as a criminal.
In March 2025, she was arrested after visiting the EOCO office to inquire about her husband’s arrest. She was later granted bail worth GH¢80 million—one of the highest in Ghana’s recent legal history—though her lawyers described the terms as excessive. Deputy Attorney-General Dr. Justice Srem Sai further alleged that CCTV footage showed Angela attempting to move suitcases suspected to contain large sums of foreign currency on the night of her husband’s arrest.
As the trial continues, Angela Adjei Boateng stands at the center of one of Ghana’s most significant corruption cases in recent years—one that could reshape public trust in institutions and business practices.
