Speaking on his Onua Maakye television programme on Tuesday, July 22, 2026, Captain Smart alleged that this unnamed top NPP personality went as far as consume alcohol in celebration of Wontumi's conviction, a detail the broadcaster found particularly striking given that the individual in question is a Muslim and therefore religiously prohibited from drinking.
Captain Smart stopped short of identifying the person by name, yet his description was specific enough to set tongues wagging across political and social media circles.
He maintained that the joy expressed by this NPP figure over a fellow party member's legal downfall shared deep fractures within the ruling party.
The revelation, although unverified and without a named subject, quickly gained traction online, with many Ghanaians weighing in on what it suggests about internal tensions within the NPP.
This said celebration comes on the back of the national NPP executives discounting the 20 years sentencing of their Ashanti regional Chairman as a political imprisonment.
The Instagram post below shows Captain Smart alleging that an Islamic NPP bigwig viewed Chairman Wuntumi’s 20-year sentence as good news and even celebrated it with a drink.
