NPP threatened to abandon me when I had issues at Manhyia - Chairman Wontumi
Chairman Wontumi has recently taken the opportunity to discuss his ongoing ‘duabo’ case at Manhyia, marking the first time he has addressed the issue publicly.
During a gathering organised by the Multimedia Group, titled Defend Media Freedom, he shared his perspective on the challenging situation he finds himself in.
In his statements, Wontumi expressed that he does not believe he is guilty of any wrongdoing. Despite this, he felt it was necessary to visit the Manhyia Palace to offer an apology.
He explained that the influence and authority of the palace played a significant role in his decision, as he regarded it as a powerful institution within the community.
Wontumi claimed that the Kokoso chief had made false accusations against him, yet he still opted for reconciliation in light of the palace’s formidable standing.
Furthermore, he revealed that during the course of the crisis, members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) had threatened to sever ties with him, indicating that they would not support him if he faced legal consequences.
This development adds another layer of complexity to his situation, as it suggests potential political repercussions that could arise from the ongoing case.
Overall, Wontumi’s revelations highlight not only the personal struggles he faces but also the broader implications of political affiliations in the context of legal challenges.
Recently Manhyia Palace made headlines when they rejected Afia Pokuaa’s apology after she was accused of insulting Asantehene and Asantes.
