A joint team of police officers and individuals believed to be National Security operatives surrounded the residence of NPP Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako—widely known as Chairman Wontumi—on Friday in a surprise operation.
The motive behind the operation remains unclear. Eyewitnesses reported that the security personnel arrived in the early hours of the morning, taking up strategic positions around the property.
Adding to the intrigue, some operatives were seen deploying a drone over the compound, fueling speculation among onlookers.
It is not yet known whether Chairman Wontumi was present at the time of the incident.
The scene quickly attracted dozens of NPP supporters and curious residents, many of whom demanded explanations for the sudden security presence.
Reports indicate that the operatives eventually left the area after reaching an understanding with Chairman Wontumi’s legal team.
The incident, marked by a strong and highly visible security presence, drew significant attention and left many nearby residents both concerned and puzzled.
