Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party has been accused of masterminding the alleged thumb-printed ballots which were found in a hotel room in Kumasi on Saturday.
In a statement released on Monday, management of Madison Lodge said the room which the said ballots were found in were booked by a gentleman by name Andy Owusu – special assistant to Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi.
The hotel says Andy dropped two bags and stayed in the room for two hours with a fair skin lady, whom they suspect he has an amorous relationship with.
Mr Wontumi, according to the statement, led a team of police officers on Sunday to ransack the hotel room in which Andy booked and found out that the bags he left contained thumb-printed ballots.
Below is the full statement
NPP assertion of Thumb printed Ballots scandalous
The attention of Madison Lodge has been drawn to images and videos circulating on social media, alleging that thumb printed ballot papers were found in our hotel rooms. We wish to state the following
1. On Saturday, December 3 at 7:20PM, a gentleman by name Andy Owusu, who is a known face in Kumasi and special Assistant to Chairman Wontumi, booked three rooms, he said was meant for some investors of his business.
2. He dropped 2 Bags and stayed in the room for 2 hours with a fair lady.
3. Chairman Wontumi, on Sunday, led Police men and media to our hotel premises to the very room his assistant booked, only to be told they were thumb printed Ballot.
4. We see this as scandalous and an attempt to destroy our brand as one of the serene hotels in Kumasi.
5. We are therefore willing to cooperate with the Police to find the true intent of Chairman Wontumi and his special Assistant.
Thank You.
Evans Nuamah,
Hotel Manager

Haaaba, Mr. Manager please credit Ghanaians with some level of intelligence. Does that mean that when the guest checked out of your hotel you do not do any inspection in the room and so the bags containing the ballot papers had been left in the room till today Monday Morning? Was the room not cleaned after the guest checked out on Saturday night, granted he used the hotel for "short" business? This statement from the hotel leaves too many questions to be believed.
People like Bernard Antwi Boasiako will help in keeping NPP in opposition for a very long time. Discerning and level headed Ghanaians will always weigh every information that is put in the public domain by NPP before a meaning decision is taken. I have never trusted this man's reportage and the decision to dislike NPP is as a result of people like this and many others in the party. NPP wake up and sell the party devoid of insults and wicked propaganda.
The hotel can't even trace the booking of the occupant who was suppose to be in that room . We are above this cooked story which was served by NDC and force on Madison Hotel to tell us.
Who will plant an evidence and them call the police to arrest the person that planted the evidence? If this is true then the police should arrest Wotumi's aide .
Myopic thinkers
Rubiiish, so you thin minds from the police and ndc think, Wontume's aid foooolishly used his own name to book a room and left those fake papers there, see how thin your minds are. How difficult is it for ndc to pay monies to the police plus the so called hotel management to turn the story.
thumbs up madison hotel manager. your hotel is a trust worthy hotel.
AM ASHAMED FOR BELIEVING THIS STORY WHEN I HEARD IT ON PEACEFM AND UTV THIS MORNING. NPP Y3NIM 3YA AGU ASE. WONTUMI STOP DESTROYING THE PARTY ITS A DISGRACE.
