    Wontumi clearly abused every priviledge he got and it's clear. He took road contract and failed to honour his obligation as well. If such a character is also engaged in an illegal mining in a forest reserve and some fools fro ...

    I TOLD YOU, THAT WONTUMI'S CASE IS AN INESCAPABLE ONE. HE HAS SENSIBLY THROWN IN THE TOWEL. ANDY APPIAH-KUBI IS A GOOD LAWYER.

    Smart move by chairman. He should refund full with interest. This case had 90% chance of sending chairman to prison than illegal mining.

    There should be no plea bargaining. He should be tried, if found guilty, he should suffer the consequences to serve as a deterrent to others who may decide to steal and if not caught enjoy the booty, but when caught plea bar ...

    Where are the foolidh npp guts who said wontumi was being persecuted? He has admitted guilt and is begging to payback the amount instead of going to jail. They were looting as if there's no tomorrow

  • Recommendation to Attorney General regarding WONTUMI'S CASE 2 weeks ago

    Regardless of him admitting guilt, put in jail to serve as a deterrent to other political figures who think they are above the law. I recommend
    1. 7 years of jail time
    2. A fine of 25 million
    3. 5 years of probation

    We are watching the NDC... Such a person even after plea bargain should be sentenced and not walk.free

  • Addo Stephen 2 weeks ago

    Wontumi's plea bargain doesn't exonerate him from criminal prosecution.

  • Charles 2 weeks ago

    The Attorney General should allow the court to pronounce him guilty first before he pays the full amount, and if he fails to pay, he should go to jail like it happened to the bank guy.

    Is that? I wish to see the face of your woman. She must have suffered a lot from the smell of Wontumi's incessant farting. Gbom Gbom Gbom. Atomic Bomb

  • Gbemi 2 weeks ago

    Wontumi has admitted to being corrupt and has filed a plea bargain, after wasting everyone's time in court and denying any wrongdoing. The state will take the money and jail you. Naaniama

  • Joey 2 weeks ago

    Wontumi in the npp chairmanship race is a clear indication that the party is not a serious one. Apart his rabble rousing behavior which seem to be his strength for the party, he's proven to be a thief and a scammer. How do yo ...

    Plea bargain is still a conviction and judgement from the court. Can an ex-convict become the national chairman of the main opposition party?

  • Hendrix 2 weeks ago

    Wontumi should be banned from any political party leadership in Ghana forever. Chairman is a scammer and a thief.

  • Nsor 2 weeks ago

    A plea bargain is not acceptable. For a straight forward case like this which I believe a nino lawyer can prove his guilt in court I don't expect the AG to accept it else ORAL is dead and so is NDC. Mr president, DON'T ALLOW ...
