In a stunning revelation, the Spy News Agency (SNA) has uncovered a complex web of deceit and corruption surrounding prominent Ghanaian businesswoman Angela Diala List. The investigation, which has sent shockwaves through the business community, reveals extensive allegations of misconduct spanning multiple countries.
Angela List, who previously dismissed allegations of deceit and corruption as baseless, issued a bold challenge to SNA to provide evidence of her alleged illegal activities. The SNA responded by presenting compelling documents that paint a damning picture of her business practices.
The investigation, titled “Unveiling the Deception and Corruption of Ghanaian Businesswoman Angela List,” was published on June 14. Despite List’s fierce denials and threats to sue for defamation, SNA stood firm, releasing further details to support its position. The evidence presented includes accusations of deceit, embezzlement, theft, and preferential treatment from governments in multiple countries, including Liberia and Jordan.
Unlawful Activities Across Borders
SNA’s findings reveal a trail of malfeasance that spans across borders. In Australia, the Supreme Court of Western Australia found that List had unlawfully attempted to remove the current director of Adamus Resources Limited and replace him with her own nominees without proper board meetings or due process. This led to her formal removal as CEO of Adamus Resources Limited on February 3, 2023.
In Jordan, documents reveal that List forged documents to take over a joint venture investment by BCM International Company. She reportedly withdrew USD 4 million using forged documents, leading to charges of complicity in fraud and an arrest warrant issued on March 19, 2024.
Misappropriation and Misconduct
The SNA investigation uncovered that List misappropriated funds and engaged in unauthorized cash transfers. Evidence shows that during her tenure as Finance Manager at BCM, she transferred more than USD 7 million to purchase a resort, and a plane, and placed funds in an offshore trust. These actions were taken without the knowledge or consent of her business partner and estranged husband, Paul List.
List’s purported involvement in these financial misdeeds, including the use of her mother to conceal assets purchased with company funds, has further tarnished her reputation. Despite her denials, the evidence presented by SNA contradicts her claims of innocence and integrity.
Political Connections and Preferential Treatment
List has also been accused of capitalizing on political connections for personal gain. Documents reveal that while acting as an Executive Director for the BCM Group, she was awarded mining concessions under the CDC-led government headed by President George Weah in Liberia. These concessions were granted shortly after Weah assumed the presidency, raising suspicions of preferential treatment.
Unfulfilled Promises
The investigation also highlights List’s failure to fulfill her obligations under a Memorandum of Understanding with Grand Bassa County in Liberia. Despite promising to undertake numerous community development initiatives, including upgrading schools and providing safe drinking water, List failed to make any payments or fulfill her commitments, leading to the cancellation of the MoU.
Legal and Corporate Fallout
Following her removal from BCM and her collapsed marriage with Paul List, Angela intensified efforts to use her company, NGUVU, to annex Adamus Ghana and other assets. This led to an Interim Management Committee being set up to manage the affairs of Adamus Ghana, and a court injunction to prevent List from holding herself out as a director.
Conclusion
As SNA continues to expose the depths of Angela List’s alleged deceit and corruption, the repercussions of her actions are sure to reverberate throughout the business world. Despite her continued denials and claims of innocence, the mounting evidence against her paints a starkly different picture.
Stay tuned as the SNA delves deeper into the tangled web of deception surrounding Angela List, uncovering more about her illicit business dealings and the impact of her actions on the business community.
