Atta Akyea appears for Adu-Boahene in court after legal vacation concerns
Lawyer for former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene, Samuel Atta Akyea, has finally appeared in court as defence counsel in the ongoing trial after previously raising concerns about the decision to continue the case during the legal vacation.
Samuel Atta Akyea, the lawyer for former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene, finally appeared in court as defence counsel. He made his appearance on Tuesday, August 25, in response to the ongoing trial proceedings. Mr Akyea had previously expressed concerns about the decision to continue the case during the legal vacation.
He questioned the prioritisation of this specific case over other serious criminal matters awaiting court attention, raising questions about the Chief Justice's potential imposition of "selective justice". Despite his objections, Mr Akyea has now taken on the role of representing Mr Adu-Boahene and his wife, Angela Adjei Boateng, as they face criminal charges in connection with alleged financial offences. Both defendants have pleaded not guilty, and they are currently on bail.
