Amoateng Mobbed At Home
The people of both Nkoranza North and South in the
Brong-Ahafo Region last Saturday thronged the
Nkoranza township to give embattled former Member
of Parliament (MP) Eric Amoateng a rousing
welcome.

The former MP for Nkoranza North expressed
gratitude to the chiefs and people of Nkoranza for
the massive support they had given him when he was
incarcerated.

Mr Amoateng was earlier arrested in Ghana upon
his arrival from the US, where he served a 10-year
jail-term for illegal drug trafficking.

He was subsequently arrested by the Ghana Police
at the Kotoka Airport for allegedly possessing a
fake passport .

After various investigations, the police granted
him a GH¢200,000 bail with three sureties which
he failed to meet until now.

Citi News' Brong-Ahafo regional correspondent,
Kwadwo Brefo, reported that 'in a joyous
atmosphere, the people of Nkoranza North and South
trooped to Nkoranza to meet him upon arrival at
the town after he visited his wife at Bonsu.'

Mr Amoateng expressed his appreciation to the
people when he paid a courtesy call on the Chief
of Nkoranza, Okatakyie Agyeman Kudom IV, after he
was released from police custody.

Kwadwo Brefo added that from there, Mr Amoateng
headed to the municipal capital to meet his people
and also pay a courtesy call on the Paramount
Chief of the town, thanking him and his people for
their prayers and support.
