NPP leaders searched everywhere for their missing regional chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako. Former Vice President Bawumia led party officials to multiple government buildings on Friday night. They visited the National Intelligence Bureau offices hoping to find Wontumi after his Tuesday arrest. Security officials turned the group away without allowing any meeting. The opposition party cannot locate their Ashanti leader despite extensive efforts.
Parliamentary members boycotted sessions and marched to EOCO headquarters demanding answers. Lawmakers sat outside the crime office building calling for justice. Officials told protesters that Wontumi was not held at their facility. The confusion forced politicians to leave and plan different strategies. Nobody knows exactly where authorities are keeping the party chairman.
Deputy Attorney General Justice Srem-Sai confirmed serious criminal charges against Wontumi. Investigators suspect him of fraud and money laundering activities that cost the state money. EOCO works with international partners on a broader organized crime case. Officials are tracing assets they believe came from illegal activities. The investigation has two parts covering local and global criminal networks.
