Embattled Ashanti Regional New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, known as Chairman Wontumi, has been accused of cursing the Kokosohene, Nana Kwaku Duah, with the \u2018Antoa\u2019 deity.<\/strong><\/p>\n The alleged incident is said to be in response to accusations about Chairman Wontumi making derogatory remarks about Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, Asantehene.<\/p>\n The situation unfolded when Justin Kodua, concerned about reports of Chairman Wontumi\u2019s alleged attack on Otumfuo, called the Kokosohene to verify the news. During the phone conversation, Justin Kodua added Chairman Wontumi on a conference call to get his input on the controversial issue.<\/p>\n Unexpectedly, Chairman Wontumi, upon hearing the voice of Kokosohene, became angry and started to curse him. In his alleged curses, Wontumi reportedly invoked the powerful \u2018Antoa\u2018 deity and other river gods, praying for harm to befall the Kokosohene without any apparent provocation.<\/p>\n The Kokosohene has confirmed the incident, stating that Wontumi cursed him, praying for the river deities to strike him dead.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m extremely surprised about Wontumi\u2019s arrogant and weird behaviour. He just started to rain curses on me when he heard my voice on the phone.<\/p>\n \u201cJustin Kodua had called me on phone to verify the authenticity of Wontumi\u2019s attack on Otumfuo and also ask what steps he should take to plead on behalf of Wontumi at the Manhyia Palace. Surprisingly, Wontumi rather started to curse me with river deities when he heard my voice on the phone.<\/p>\n \u201cHe cursed me with about seven river deities, including \u2018Antoa\u2019 to strike me dead and use my wife and children as thanksgiving\u201d, Nana Kwaku Duah claimed, adding \u201ceven Justin Kodua was speechless about Wontumi\u2019s actions\u201d.<\/p>\n
