Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has paid a personal visit to the residence of Kennedy Agyapong, Member of Parliament for Assin Central, to express sincere appreciation for the support he received during his recent encounter with the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).
Wontumi, who currently serves as the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), was recently invited by EOCO over alleged financial improprieties. His detention by EOCO attracted considerable public attention and sparked discussions both within and outside political circles. During this period, Kennedy Agyapong stood out as one of the key figures who publicly showed unwavering support for the embattled party chairman.
Sources indicate that Kennedy Agyapong not only voiced his support but also offered legal guidance and helped mobilize internal party solidarity around Wontumi’s situation. It is believed that his firm backing played a major role in ensuring that the issue was handled fairly and without political manipulation.
In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Chairman Wontumi is seen arriving at Kennedy Agyapong’s residence, where the two exchanged warm greetings. The visit, which took place earlier today, was marked by visible camaraderie and mutual respect between the two party stalwarts. Wontumi used the opportunity to thank Mr. Agyapong for his loyalty and steadfastness in standing by him during what he described as a challenging moment in his political journey.
The gesture has been widely interpreted by political observers as a symbol of growing unity within the NPP, especially at a time when the party is working to maintain internal cohesion ahead of the 2024 general elections. Many believe that the alliance between Wontumi and Kennedy Agyapong could significantly influence future strategies and decisions within the party, particularly in the Ashanti Region and other strongholds.
As the EOCO case continues to unfold, with further sessions expected in the coming days, Wontumi’s show of gratitude to his political ally has been praised by party supporters who see it as a sign of humility and good leadership.
