but now that cockroach is crying for Ghs 50 million? what even surprised us is that kotokoli man bawumia is using this case to showcase his stupidity. if bawumia's wife can afford to buy expensive skin bleaching cosmetic then let her bring that Ghs 50 million to bail the cockroach. we are surprised that bawumia who also want to be president of Ghana may God forbid is supporting criminal like wuntumi. bawumia if you have ball under you go face kennedy agyapong to tell you what he knew about that fulani desert foreigner. the brave kennedy agyapong already told us that if he open his mouth to talk about the fulani hardcore woman, hell will brake loose.

If you think you can bluf, your own mouth will indict you. Wontumi isn't a child, and Ghanaians aren't stupid either. I wish I were Mahama. His legs wouldn't touch the ground; I'd have used all his rants against him.

And how much taxes was he paying from the $1 million a day. I now understand why the credit is strong after the establishment of the gold board. These guys were ripping the nation off but disrespecting Ghanaians every day. The petty traders and our market women are being harassed on daily basis to pay taxes. How do you expect the country to thrive?

Ndc people are behaving like idiots right now and the whole is watching them disgracing themselves. Why is Ndc and Mahama using Eoco to settle scores. This nothing but pure hatred. If you have a case , charge him to court , prosecute and try hard to get judgement against him. We are in a democracy where rule of law must work. Fools

It is not what he has said but what he has actually done. Money laundering, forest destruction, fraud and many others. Stop talking about things you don’t know and support the government’s efforts of curbing the country from corruption. All those who have stolen from the state will face accountability. That’s a must.

You Ghanaians don't understand the damage NPP government did to Ghana because you have not visited the forest areas. Oh my God, you would cry upon seeing that. It is like Ghana had no one single person with common sense to say enough is enough. And our Kings are the most disappointing figures in Ghana's history. They failed to stop our brothers and sisters from being taken into slavery. Today they have failed to stop Wontumi and NPP from destroying our lands that threatens our livelihood

Polluter-in-chief, rot in jail. For someone whose company was making $1 million dollars a day, it is surprising that he could not meet a $4.85 million bail bond. He even blew hot air about buying Chelsea. Rich man indeed.

The saying goes “ if u kill a snake you ought to cut the heard off and buried “ just jail him accordingly, to the rule of law. If NPP wants this guy to walk free then why this party is in existence and for what reason meant to the Oman Ghanaian..???

Please answer me…Do we really mean this country to to develop like any other country in western hemisphere?? If we see some leaders sitting on the floor encouraging thievery???

You allow this guy to destroy the environment because he is illiterate yet you claim you are the party of intellectuals..So these lawyers of NPP want to tell the entire nation that they support Ofori Attah and all these people that have stollen from the country???

This galamsey kingpin has always been in business with high ranking members of the NPP and some crooked traditional leaders (chiefs). A man who claims to make $1 Million a day in his mining business surely should not be struggling to afford the bail imposed by the authorities. Much of the man's galamsey loot is stashed away in banks across the UK.
