Former Minister Condemns Wontumi's Arrest as 'Political Persecution'

Accra, Ghana – May 28, 2025 – The arrest of Chairman Wontumi has sparked controversy, with Hon. Titus Glover, former Greater Accra Regional Minister, denouncing it as "political persecution" and an "abuse of power." In a video released by OnuaOnline, Glover is shown surrounded by supporters outside what seems to be a government building, expressing his strong disapproval. "The arrest and detention of Chairman Wontumi is clearly a political persecution and an abuse of power," Glover stated. He questioned the need for such a forceful arrest, suggesting that a phone call would have sufficed. The video shows a tense atmosphere, underscoring the gravity of the situation. The incident highlights ongoing political tensions in Ghana and raises questions about the fairness of the legal process. The arrest, Glover claims, is an attempt to silence dissent. Further investigations are needed to ascertain the full details of the case and ensure due process is followed.
