The Kumasi Traditional Council has cleared the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, of any wrongdoing.
Mr Boasiako, known as Chairman Wontumi, was accused of derogatory remarks against the Asantehene during the NPP parliamentary vetting process.
He was subsequently summoned before the council on Monday, January 29.
He appeared before the council in the company of some party leaders such as the National Chairman Stephen Ntim, General Secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, National Organiser Henry Nana Boakye, and National Treasurer Dr Charles Dwamena.
Chairman Wontumi, however, denied all allegations levelled against him by the Kokosuhene, Nana Kwaku Duah.
According to him, the allegations were false, malicious and not a true reflection of what transpired during the vetting process.
Although Kokosohene, Nana Kwaku Duah, defended his allegations against Chairman Wontumi, the Kumasi Traditional Council trashed the claims and asked both parties to settle their score without involving the Asantehene.
While delivering judgment on the matter, Bantamhene, Baffour Owusu Amankwaatie VI, admonished chiefs to refrain from political activities in the heat of campaigning for the 2024 general elections.
He asked that the NPP Regional Chairman be set free without any charges.
