Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has disclosed that the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has impounded nearly 15 of his cars.
Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem morning show, Wontumi revealed that the seized vehicles include luxury brands such as a Bentley and a Rolls Royce.
He explained that all the vehicles were acquired legitimately and had cleared the necessary port duties.
“At the moment, EOCO has taken close to 15 of my cars, but I have decided not to speak. The vehicles are in EOCO’s custody. I bought them from Bright Selby at Asylum Down near the NPP office. He registered them, paid the duties, and did everything. My Bentley, Rolls Royce, and others are all there,” Wontumi said.
He stressed that despite the development, he had chosen to remain calm and rely on divine intervention.
“I have been quiet because I know that at the right time, God will intervene and speak for me,” he added.
Wontumi was arrested on May 27, 2025, after being invited by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) for questioning over alleged serious criminal offences, including fraud, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering.
He described his arrest experience as both physical and spiritual, claiming that he sensed the presence of deceased relatives — a sign, in his view, that his life was close to ending.
