Former NSA Deputy Director released from NIB's custody

Kwaku Ohene Djan, the former Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Authority (NSA), has been released from the custody of the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) after days of detention.

His arrest was linked to an ongoing probe into financial irregularities and alleged misconduct at the NSA, where investigators are uncovering potential mismanagement and fraudulent activities that have raised national concern.

Sources indicate that Mr. Djan’s detention formed part of a wider investigation into suspected financial misappropriation and administrative lapses that may have cost the state significant losses. Several high-ranking officials, both past and present, have reportedly been implicated in the scandal.

Following his release on Monday, February 24, the NIB clarified that Mr. Djan remains a key figure in the investigation and could be recalled for further questioning if necessary.

Meanwhile, his legal team has assured that he is ready to cooperate fully with authorities to ensure transparency and due process.
