NPP’s Bernard Antwi Boasiako says the Ashanti Region “got worse” during the era of the immediate past government, National Democratic Party [NDC].

According to him, the region is yet to “smile” again with jaw-dropping developments by the current government led by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

The NPP’s Ashanti Regional Chairman who is popularly referred to as ‘Chairman Wontumi’ made this assertion after the president's recent visit to the region.

“Asanteman is currently the happiest region ever. Since NPP won the last elections, the region is still rejoicing over Nana Addo’s presidency. The region has suffered a lot under the past government,” he said. 

Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show dubbed ‘Ghana Montie’ the outspoken regional chairman recalled some “bad policies” he claimed was introduced in the region by the Mahama-led administration.

“The NDC forced on us [Asanteman] all the bad policies they introduced. They [NDC] introduced some National Health Insurance program which wasn’t right yet they brought that to Kumasi. We suffered a lot,” he told host Kwesi Aboagye.
