Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, widely known as Chairman Wontumi, has broken his silence over fresh allegations connecting his company, Akonta Mining Limited, to illegal mining activities involving Chinese nationals.
Reacting to a post by journalist Erastus Asare Donkor, Chairman Wontumi strongly dismissed the claims and issued a bold challenge.
Erastus had reportedly stated in a Facebook post that "Many of the Chinese criminals who were making the river dirty told us on camera that they were working for Akonta Mining." However, Chairman Wontumi insists no such link exists. "I am not working; I have stopped working for a very long time. "So I am challenging Erastus, if he claims he has arrested anybody who has been caught engaging in illegal mining and claims is working for Akonta, he should send the person to court.
I am challenging him," he stated.
