The decision was taken based on petitions brought against him.
The Sources would not open up on the details of the separate petition. “Let me keep everything, it is a party issue, all I can confirm is that the regional executives took the decision against Him based on the content of the petitions.”
However, a copy of the petition against Mr Michael Owusu AKA K WUSU , sighted, accused him of “fraudulent withdrawals from party’s bank accounts”.
“Petition is herein submitted to invoke Article 3(7) of the NPP Party Constitution as amended to sanction Mr. Michael Owusu AKA K WUSU and Mr GEORGE PRINCE KORANTENG of Agona West from continuing holding their position as the Constituency Secretaries of the party in Assin South and Agona West for conducting themselves contrary to the meaning of Article 3(5) A.5, and also showing a misconduct act(s) according to Article 4(7) (c) of the Party Constitution as Amended.”

“That Mr. Michael Owusu AKA K WUSU has issued and sign check for withdrawal a sum of GHC 10.000 from the party’s bank account without prior approval by the Constituency Executive Committee,
Details of bank statement show that Mr Michael Owusu AKA K WUSU together with the then constituency suspended party Chairman, Mr. Theophilus Taylor have withdrawn a Sum of Ghc 10.000 from the said account without the knowledge of the Constituency Executive Committee not even the treasurer"
