Chairman Wontumi, the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has become the subject of significant public discourse after a video surfaced online capturing some of his recent statements.
The video, which has been widely shared, shows Chairman Wontumi making bold and somewhat exaggerated promises to his constituency members ahead of the 2024 general elections.
In the clip, Chairman Wontumi claims that if the NPP is voted into power, every Ghanaian aspiring to attend university will only require a Ghana Card for admission.
He further assured that after completing their education, graduates will be guaranteed high-paying jobs with monthly salaries reaching as much as GHS 8000.00.
These comments have sparked debates and ridicule across social media, with many critics pointing to the unrealistic nature of these promises.
Observers have suggested that the promises are part of a desperate attempt by the NPP to attract votes in the upcoming elections, even if it involves making far-fetched claims.
Chairman Wontumi’s remarks have added fuel to the growing conversation surrounding political promises in Ghana, particularly as citizens prepare to make crucial decisions at the polls.
His statements, while intended to inspire confidence in the NPP’s leadership, have instead drawn attention to the credibility of election pledges and the lengths some politicians may go to secure victory.
