National Executives of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) are expected to announce the suspension of the Manhyia South Constituency Chairman Ofori Atta-Tomtom and Organizer Alhaji Abubakari also known as Alhaji Aboba over what the party describes as” anti-party behavior”.
Alhaji Abubakari is reported to have verbally attacked the Ashanti regional Chairman of the party Bernard Antwi Boasiako Popularly known as Chairman Wontumi during the party’s Parliamentary vetting for failing to acknowledged Member of Parliament of Manhyia South Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh’s contributions to the party’s internal activities in Ashanti region.
He is reported to have made these statements before the vetting committee after the National Organizer sang the praise of the Minister of Energy for sponsoring his campaign that saw his election into office.
The party national executives deem Alhaji Aboba’s verbal attack on the party’s Ashanti regional Chairman as unfortunate and have taken the decision to suspend him to serve as a deterrent to other party members.
The Manhyia South Constituency Chairman who also sold out the party’s Chairman and incited Ashantis against the National Organizer Henry Nana Boakye for watering down the alleged disparaging comment against Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II will also be suspended for his actions associated with other threat during radio interviews.
Although the Kumasi Traditional Council has resolved the issue amicably and has ordered for the reverse of Wontumi’s curses against Nana Kwaku Duah, Chief of Kokoso, the party feels such anti-party behavior must not be entertained at any level in the party.
Meanwhile, Wontumi’s camp is preparing to address a news conference in the coming days to expose the hidden agenda against their Boss and those who sponsored press conferences to incite Ashantis against the ruling party and the Ashanti regional chairman.
