  ASHANTI REGIONAL CHAIRMAN, CHAIRMAN WONTUMI SHOOTS HIMSELF IN THE FOOT Following the closure of Ashanti Regional NPP office by its Land lady over unpaid rent, it is evident that the party Chairman, Chairman Wontumi has shot himself in the foot as his lies about the said building have caught up with him. From this development, Chairman Wontumi can be described as the Ananias of the party and the cry of his party folks now is “…You have not lied just to us but to God.” (Acts 5:1-4).  Does this incidence predict the end of Chairman Wontumi? Is he not the same person who lavishly displayed gold bars on TV claiming he is wealthy? How come he has not been able to settle the monthly rent of the NPP Regional office which is only 1,000 cedis a month? It is this same building that he claims he had purchased for the party, but his lies have now caught up with him from this nonpayment of rent which has consequently led to the closure of the building.  All this while, it appears he has been takin
