LAIR! You Didn’t Solve Dumsor- Chairman Wontumi Exposes John Mahama

The Ashanti Regional Chairman for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako known as Chairman Wontumi, has described Joy FM’s Erastus Asare Donkor as a fake Journalist for going public with a news item he describes as fake.

According to the CEO of Wontumi Communications,  Erastus did not verify the false information he was given before broadcasting.

A report by the Journalist stated Chairman Wontumi deployed task force at Samreboi a community in the Western Region to protect his mining site and ended up firing gun shot which has left many injured.

Speaking to Kwaku Dawuro on Movement In The Morning Show, Chairman Wontumi said that ‘’there are ethics when it comes to Journalism- you don’t publish one sided story. The best thing is to verify even when you trust your source. I am very disappointed in Joy FM and the reporter who led that reportage, he is  a fake journalist. Dawuro, you can confirm form the Western Regional commander to verify if what they said happened, really happened. I am not bigger than the law, if I ordered anyone  to hurt the people in the community, the law should deal with me”.

He stated that some security boys who he believes to belong to the camp of Samatex have burnt his tracks and cars, and that he has reported the incidence to the police for further investigations.
