“Not a single executive came to visit Chairman Wontumi since his arrest” – NPP’s Moses Abor shocked

News“Not a single executive came to visit Chairman Wontumi since his arrest” - NPP’s Moses Abor shocked

Moses Abor, an aspiring NPP National Organiser, has voiced his deep displeasure with the party’s leadership, criticising their perceived neglect of Chairman Wontumi during his ongoing legal battle.

According to Moses Abor, not a single executive has come to visit Chairman Wontumi since his arrest.

Speaking to the media, Moses Abor stated, “We want to thank everyone so far, and I believe God will speak today.  I can’t think far, I am struggling to understand what is happening with the leadership of the NPP.

How is it that a whole regional chairman has been facing a serious situation since Monday, and yet, up till now, not a single party executive has shown up to support him?”

He added, “I think there is something wrong because NPP is not like this; there are a lot of things that are going on in the NDC, but we are quiet.

What at all has Wontumi done? What he is being accused of there is no evidence of him being caught red-handed doing it, and everyone is neglecting him.

This is not about Wontumi but about the party, and I keep saying that no amount of intimidation can bring the NPP down. Thank you very much”.

Meanwhile, Wontumi has been released from police custody after three nights.

The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) released comes after he fulfilled bail conditions amounting to GH₵25 million imposed across two separate illegal mining cases.

It will be recalled, lead counsel Andy Appiah-Kubi for the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has revealed his client has met all his bail conditions.

Wontumi’s lawyer revealed his client is still in custody due to processing delays by state institutions.

Speaking in an interview on Joy News, Appiah-Kubi explained, “We have met all the bail conditions, but the processing of the order is what is delaying it. The execution requires verification of the properties and confirmation of their valuation, and those are handled by state institutions”.

“I’m told it has now been identified and the report is being sent to the registrar of the court”, he noted.

Andy Appiah-Kubi, in an earlier interview, had disclosed that the court granted Wontumi bail, but the process could not be completed before the close of the day yesterday, Tuesday.

Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, lead counsel Andy Appiah-Kubi stated, “We made an application for bail on Tuesday, and the court granted it with three sureties, two to be justified. We are processing the application, and by God’s grace, we have had people to sign the bail bond and stand as sureties”

“It was late after the court proceedings, so we couldn’t complete the process with the police and the court registrar. This morning, the police prosecutor, ASP Godwin, called to inform me that his men are ready to inspect the properties of the sureties so we can expedite the process,” he explained.

He added, “I really appreciate the effort of the police prosecutor for calling me to inform me they are ready. This is rare. I must also commend the court registrar, who is coincidentally also called Gordon, for his effort to expedite the process”

“I am very hopeful the processes will be finalised today, and Wontumi will be released,” he added.

Wontumi, on Tuesday, October 7, was granted a ₵25 million bail by the Criminal Division of the Accra High Court in connection with two separate cases relating to alleged illegal mining.

Meanwhile, the next hearing is scheduled for October 28, 2025.
