Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, on Monday, May 26, 2025, reported to the headquarters of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) in Accra in response to a police invitation.
He was accompanied by former Attorney General Godfred Dame.
The development follows a dramatic attempt to arrest Chairman Wontumi at his residence in Kumasi last Friday, May 23, by a combined team of National Security and police operatives.
The operation triggered a swift response from supporters of the NPP regional chair, who massed up at his residence in protest, condemning the heavy security presence.
