Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Manhyia North, Collins Owusu Amankwa, has spoken out regarding the widely publicized slapping incident involving him and the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi.
Speaking on Peace FM's Kokrokoo panel discussion on February 26, 2025, the former MP dismissed the reports that Chairman Wontumi had deliberately slapped him.
He clarified the circumstances surrounding the incident and labelled previous narratives as propaganda. "You said a chairman slapped someone, and I am saying it today, that cannot happen in Krofuom.
I am not sure the regional chairman can slap someone in Krofuom," he said.
