Wontumi sleeps on Student Mattress – Paul Yandoh speaks on Wontumi’s condition

Paul Kwabena Yandoh, the former Ashanti Regional Communications Director for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and a close ally of Chairman Wontumi, has described the current situation of Chairman Wontumi, who is serving a prison sentence at Nsawam Prison.

In a video posted on X and seen by GhanaNkomo, Yandoh stated that Bernard Antwi Boasiako—widely known as Chairman Wontumi—sleeps in a cell shared with roughly 50 other inmates.

He added that social media claims suggesting Chairman Wontumi stays in a separate room and is receiving preferential treatment are untrue.

“I have been visiting him in jail, and what you have heard is totally different from what I have seen. Wontumi’s cell contains about 50 inmates,” he said.

Paul Yandoh additionally claimed that Chairman Wontumi sleeps on a student mattress, adding that the former Ashanti Regional Chairman gets only half of the mattress to sleep on.

“He sleeps on a student mattress, and even with that, he gets half of the mattress to sleep on. Who says if you are politically inclined, you will be treated differently?

“Get into trouble and see, and you will know the kind of instructions you will follow when you get there,” he added.
