A group calling itself ‘Wontumi Fun Club’ is demanding an unqualified apology from Member of Parliament for Manhyia North, Collins Owusu Amankwa to the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, Bernard Antwi Boasiako.
The group noted that the NPP lawmaker must do so on OKAY FM the platform they claim the lawmaker tarnished the image of the party chairman on.
This comes after Collins Owusu Amankwa had accused Chairman Wontumi as affectionately called in politics of mismanagement of party funds– he is also believed to have tarnished the image of his regional chairman in the media.
Although Mr Amankwa has been remorseful for his actions and apologised to Chairman Wontumi privately – the group says he should replicate the same apology on OKAY FM publicly.
“We have learnt from a credible source that, Hon. Collins Owusu Amankwa has rendered an apology to Chairman Wontumi and we understand Chairman has accepted his apology. We wish to state it clearly that, Hon. Collins Amankwa will only get our side of forgiveness as he wishes, if he apologize to Chairman Wontumi and us on the same media platforms he accused chairman wrongly,” – Ibrahim Alhassan chairman of the group said in a statement.
The statement also read – “We never had anything against him till he ventured into that act which seems to tarnish the image of our able chairman and we shall never forgive him as he wishes if he does not apologies through that same media he pressed his allegations against chairman.
“ . .Per our source, we understand, chairman Wontumi has decided to let it go, but, for us, we can’t forgive him, if he does not apologize on the same OKAY FM and other media stations he attacked chairman.
“ . . We want to state it clearly that we duly wish for a united front to wrestle power from the incompetent Mahama-led administration, but, we’ll deal with persons or individuals who want to take advantage of this our wish,” the statement said.
