In the wake of rising political tensions following the arrest and detention of NPP Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi), Member of Parliament for Chiana-Paga, Niyema Billa Alamzy has made a striking appeal for Ghana to rise above the emotionally charged rhetoric of blind political loyalty.
Speaking on Morning Starr's Weekly Review with Naa Dedei Tettey, Alamzy challenged the culture of partisan solidarity that often overshadows facts and due process. "We have to go away from 'I stand with, I stand with' and try to know the reason why we are picking some people," he urged.
Alamzy's statement comes amid a fierce debate over the role of law enforcement agencies like EOCO and accusations of political persecution from the opposition NPP.
In recent days, the "I stand with Wontumi" slogan has trended across media platforms, with high-ranking party officials and grassroots supporters rallying in protest against his treatment.
