Adu-Boahen Trial: Court gives Atta Akyea final chance to end cross-examination
The Accra High Court has given counsel for former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahen one final opportunity to conclude the cross-examination of the fourth prosecution witness.
The Accra High Court has granted Atta Akyea, counsel for former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahen, one final chance to finish cross-examining the fourth prosecution witness. The court adjourned the case to September 2, 2026, to complete this process and for the prosecution to wrap up its case. This decision came after Akyea repeatedly asked for more time to question Frank Marshall Cromwell, an EOCO Staff Officer.
The court initially allowed Akyea an extra day after Cromwell spent seven weeks in the witness box, then granted three days, two more days, and finally three more days before the September 2 deadline. Despite the court's insistence that Akyea would only have three hours to finish on that day, Akyea accepted the arrangement. The prosecution is expected to follow with its closing arguments.
The trial involves Adu-Boahen, his wife Angela Boateng, and Advantage Solutions Limited, all accused of misusing GH¢49.1 million allocated for NSB cyber defense equipment.
