The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, nicknamed Wontumi, has vowed to work tirelessly until he win all parliamentary seats in his region.
The loudmouth politician cum business mogul is very optimistic of retaining his chairmanship seat easily despite the fact that many people intend to unseat him in their next election.
“I will maintain my seat again as the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, because I am going into the race unopposed,” Wontumi told Peacefmonline.com
Reports say some party stalwarts like Kwabena Kokofu, the former Member of Parliament (MP) for Bantama and Kwabena Nsenkyire, a leading member of the party, are lacing their boots to topple Wontumi.
Wontumi stated emphatically that he was not bothered about reports that some party people were eyeing his post.
He said his aim is to win all parliamentary seats in his region for the NPP in the next elections.
“Until all the parliamentary seats in the Ashanti Region becomes NPP seat, I will never rest” he noted
The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) presently holds four of the 47 seats in the stronghold region of the NPP – Asawase, New Edubiase, Ahafo Ano North and Sekyere Afram Plains—while the opposition NPP has 43

Who wrote this article? I thought it was old but the date is current and yet they have at the last paragraph that NPP is the party in opposition. Do some journalists not understand the word opposition or a typing mistake? Anybody writes anything these days without even proofreading. Journalism is very cheap in GH today
there is no tribalism on this matter PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! grow up GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Asking my self which of de two political parties is in opposition.....read de last paragraph detailing de number of seats held by both parties
Wontumi the Kumasi Bozo. You will never find such a caricature anywhere else?
I think u dont know what is called tribalistic so go and find an oxford dictionary and read well. Let me take Asawase for example: Mubarak contested for NDC whiles Alhaji Alidu seidu contested for NPP where both are northerners so if Alhaji Seidu wins that seat for NPP what will tribalism got to do with that cos Alhaji isnt an Ashanti. Lack of understanding is what u have cos all he is saying is for all seats to be for NPP which doesn't matter who ever contests in the name of the party as to a voltarian or Northerner, what matter is you win in the name of NPP.
What is tribalistic about this? Then what about VOLTA REGION.? Please think before you put something down ,is not for Ghana alone,but please a cross the world. Blessings
However crude people describe you, you have shrugged off their criticism and this has paid off, at least if the results of the 2016 elections is anything to go by, you have been victorious.
In every human endeavour one should have a clear vision. Chairman Wontumi's vision for the NPP in the Ashanti region is phenomenal. Yes, the man with a lion's heart. I love your assertiveness, a word missing in the Ghanaian vocabulary. Your plan to build a unique regional office for the region, which is already taking shape, tells much of your capabilities. In you the NPP has an invaluable asset. More greeze to your elbows, and may Yaweh Sabaoth be your guide.
THIS SHOWS HOW TRIBALISTICD YOUR INTENTIONS AS A PARTY LEADER CAN BE IF YOU CONTINUE TO HAVE POWER IN YOUR HANDS. GOD SAVE GHANA. AND WE WAIT TO SEE THE OUTCOME FOR US ALL IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE IF THINGS WILL GO THE WAY YOUR INTENTIONS POTRAY. AHAMDULLAH.
