Strategy

Providing details, Tom Tom said since it became open that the running mate will be chosen from the Ashanti Region, Wontumi has allegedly devised a strategy to benefit from the process.

Destruction

He further indicated that following the unfortunate death of Dr Kumah, Chairman Wontumi has upped his game to destroy any other person he opposes as a possible running mate. “ He is doing this using his aides led by a presenter of Wontumi media, Oheneba Nana Asiedu.”

Conspiracies

Against the backdrop of the development, the Manhyia South NPP Chairman stressed the urgent need for the party leadership to check the conspiracies adopted by Chairman Wontumi to keep the party intact in Ashanti Region.
