Hajia Fati Breaks Down in Tears Upon Meeting Chairman Wontumi at NPP Conference-VIDEO

Hajia Fati, a devoted member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), was overcome with emotion as she embraced Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, during the party’s delegate conference.

The emotional encounter follows Wontumi’s recent arrest by the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) over allegations of illegal mining in a protected forest and discrepancies in government road contracts. Hajia Fati’s tearful reaction highlights the deep loyalty and support Wontumi commands within the party, despite the legal challenges he faces.

The arrest has stirred controversy within political circles, with NPP members divided over the allegations. While some see the investigation as a necessary step against corruption, others, like Hajia Fati, view it as an unfair targeting of a key party figure.

Wontumi, a influential NPP chairman in the Ashanti Region (Chairman), has denied any wrongdoing, and his supporters have rallied behind him, calling for due process. The incident underscores the tensions within the party as it navigates legal and public relations challenges ahead of the upcoming flagbearer ship race.
