Lawyer Frustrated as EOCO Offers No Information on Chairman Wontumi's Whereabouts

Accra, Ghana – May 28, 2025. Lead Counsel Andy Appiah-Kubi and his legal team arrived at the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) today seeking information on the location of their client, Chairman Wontumi. However, they were met with an unexpected obstacle: no EOCO officer was present to provide information or assistance. "There is no officer at the EOCO office to receive us and tell us where our client Chairman Wontumi is kept," Appiah-Kubi stated to reporters outside the building. The incident has raised concerns about transparency within the EOCO and the handling of high-profile cases. The legal team is now reportedly considering their next steps to secure Chairman Wontumi's release or ascertain his well-being. The situation remains fluid, and further updates are expected.
