A former Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Obiri Boahen, has advised the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, to exercise discretion in his public utterances. According to Obiri Boahen, this incident should serve as a caution for Chairman Wontumi and all NPP executives to carefully measure their utterances in the public space. Speaking in an interview on Okay FM on January 30, 2024, Obiri Boahen commended the Bantemahene Baffour Owusu Amankwatia VI for his handling of the issue. The Bantemahene did very well; he handled the issue well…I will advise Chairman Wontumi to exercise discretion in his language because we have to consider where we are, the environment, the people, and what we are about to say. The Asanteman Traditional Council struck out the charges against Chairman Wontumi after hearing both sides.
