He Is Unwell In Custody: Abronye DC Claims Chairman Wontumi Is Sick, Accuses NPP Leaders Of Cover-Up

Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has alleged that incarcerated Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi) is critically ill in prison, accusing party executives of deliberately concealing his medical state.

According to a report by GHBrain, Abronye DC firmly dismissed public assurances regarding Wontumi’s well-being, stating that anyone claiming the jailed politician is fine is lying. He alleged that senior NPP leadership is deliberately suppressing information about Wontumi’s deteriorating health to prevent widespread panic and agitation among party supporters.

The allegations introduce a concerning new layer to Wontumi’s ongoing detention, following his legal troubles and sentencing connected to high-profile financial charges and state investigations. Abronye DC’s public outburst highlights growing internal friction within the NPP, exposing a rift over how the party’s executive hierarchy is managing the welfare and narrative surrounding one of its most influential regional leaders.

If verified, the claims raise serious questions about the medical care standards and custodial conditions provided to high-profile inmates within Ghana’s prison system. By challenging his party’s official stance, Abronye DC is demanding immediate medical attention for Wontumi and calling for full transparency regarding his current physical condition.

The accusations place significant pressure on the NPP national executive and prison authorities to provide an official update on Wontumi’s health status. As party loyalists and the broader public demand clarity, the handling of this internal criticism will test the NPP’s unity and communication strategy during a sensitive legal and political period.
