IN A DRAMANTIC operation, National Security officials have dismantled a sophisticated surveillance system allegedly installed at the private residence of Dr. Ernest Addison, the immediate past Governor of the Bank of Ghana under President Akufo-Addo’s administration.
According to legal practitioner Nii Kakpo Samoa Addo, Dr. Addison is alleged to have set up a covert backdoor monitoring network that gave him remote access to sensitive operations within the Bank of Ghana. This system reportedly allowed him to observe management meetings, track staff movements, and monitor vault and cash transfers – all from his home.
“With this setup, he was effectively running the show from his house,” said Samoa Addo. “He would watch events unfold through his devices and call staff members directly to demand explanations or give directives.”
Additional allegations include tip-offs leading to unauthorized cash movements at his residence – concerns that reportedly prompted National Security to act.
Acting on a court-issued search warrant, National Security operatives conducted a focused operation at Dr. Addison’s home, where they located and dismantled CCTV cameras and other advanced monitoring devices believed to be linked to the Bank of Ghana’s internal systems.
Sources familiar with the operation emphasized that the search adhered strictly to the scope of the warrant: “nothing more, nothing less.”
The revelations have sparked serious concerns about governance, institutional oversight and data security during Dr. Addison’s tenure. Investigations are ongoing as authorities seek to determine the full extent and purpose of the surveillance system.
