Afenyo Markin Shócks Ghanaians As He Exposes The Truth About Wontumi, Says He Can’t Pay 50M Bail

Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has appealed to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to cancel the GH₵50 million bail granted to Bernard Antwi Boasiako, also known as Chairman Wontumi, the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Afenyo-Markin’s request has brought renewed scrutiny to the bail conditions and the agency’s handling of the case. He is seeking a review of the decision, although the specific legal grounds for his request have not been detailed in the report.

The matter has attracted considerable public interest because of Chairman Wontumi’s position within the NPP and the substantial amount attached to his bail.

Nevertheless, the Minority Leader’s request does not mean that the bail has been revoked. Any change to the existing arrangement must be made by the appropriate authorities in accordance with the law.

The development has sparked further debate about fairness, accountability and the application of due process in cases involving prominent political figures.

Attention now turns to whether EOCO will grant Afenyo-Markin’s request and how its decision may affect Chairman Wontumi’s legal position. The agency’s response will help determine the next stage of the matter.
