President John Dramani Mahama has suspended the Director-General of the National Cyber Security Authority (NCSA), Divine Selasi Agbeti, for two weeks over his alleged misconduct involving a uniformed military officer.
The suspension follows claims that Mr. Agbeti used the military officer as a personal bodyguard during public appearances without the necessary clearance—an action that has triggered concerns about protocol breaches and national security procedures.
According to sources, the move has raised serious questions within security circles.
A letter signed by Dr. Callistus Mahama, Secretary to the President, and dated July 15, 2025, conveyed the presidency’s strong disapproval of Mr. Agbeti’s actions.
The government described his conduct as “inappropriate and embarrassing to the government.”
Government insiders suggest that further disciplinary action could be taken depending on the outcome of ongoing internal investigations.
Mr. Agbeti was appointed as Director-General of the Cyber Security Authority in March 2025, succeeding Dr. Albert Antwi-Boasiako, who had led the institution since 2017.
