Former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, has offered himself as one of the sureties for the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi. This follows efforts by Chairman Wontumi’s legal team to secure a GHS50 million bail bond for the embattled regional chairman, who is currently under investigation by the Economic and Organised Office (EOCO) over some financial dealings with EXIM Bank. Lead counsel Andy Appiah-Kubi, in an interview with Citi News, expressed confidence in satisfying the bail conditions, which include providing two sureties by the close of the day. Confirming Kennedy Agyapong’s support, Kwesi Opoku, NPP Chairman for Tema West and a known advocate for Agyapong’s presidential candidacy, told Citi News on Wednesday, May 28, that Mr. Agyapong had voluntarily stepped forward as a surety. “I am confirming. The counsel, Appiah-Kubi, was telling him (Ken Agyapong) what the bail conditions are. So he offered himself that he was available because the Director of Special Prosecution here will examine whatever the bail conditions are, and they said that those of us who are not [involved] should come out, and we came out, and he is in there. As we speak now, he is in there.” Mahama: 24-Hour economy is both a destination and a programme
