The man identified in the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO)’s latest statement regarding the seizure of Shatta Wale’s Lamborghini, Nana Kwabena Amuah, is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence in the United States.
Amuah was convicted for his involvement in a multi-million-dollar fraud scheme and was sentenced in October 2023 after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering. U.S. prosecutors described him as the “leader” of the criminal operation.
The 2019 Lamborghini Urus, which had been in the possession of Ghanaian dancehall artiste Shatta Wale, was seized as part of efforts to recover assets linked to Amuah’s financial crimes. The action followed a formal request from the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice to Ghanaian authorities to assist in locating assets tied to the case.
In a statement dated August 6, 2025, EOCO confirmed that Amuah is among several individuals under investigation in a joint probe with the FBI. The investigation focuses on suspected laundering of proceeds from a business email compromise (BEC) scheme.
