Minority MPs in Parliament have staged a walkout in protest of the continued detention of New Patriotic Party (NPP) Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi.
Chairman Wontumi was arrested by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) on Tuesday, May 27, after he reported to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for questioning.
He was subsequently held at the EOCO head office in Accra.
His lawyer, Andy Appiah Kubi, confirmed to Graphic Online that his client is being investigated on allegations of causing financial loss to the state.
