Emergency Meeting or Emergency Memory Loss?
The New Patriotic Party has reportedly convened an emergency meeting following the conviction and sentencing of its Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi. The article questions the purpose of this "Emergency meeting," asking if it is "To discuss the judgment? To discuss the sentence? Or to discuss how everyone suddenly became surprised?"
The Samreboi case did not begin yesterday, last week, or this month. The prosecution, witnesses, legal submissions, and adjournments unfolded in open court over many months before judgment was delivered. The article questions if the NPP had no idea where the case was heading or if the party never appreciated the gravity of the allegations until the judge finished reading the verdict. It also asks if nobody within the political establishment ever asked how mining concessions were being managed or if regulatory institutions should be answering difficult questions.
