Captain Smart alleged that the deceased was poisoned at an event alongside the Ashanti Regional Chairman of NPP, Chairman Wontumi. He claimed that Dr John Kumah was in India for treatment after the attempt on his life.
However, sources close to the family confirmed to Citi News that the 45-year-old MP died after a short illness but did not confirm the food poison allegation. Captain Smart claims the late legislator was eliminated to prevent the deceased from elevating to a level where he'd become unstoppable.
Affectionately called Lawyer John Kumah, the deceased is survived by a wife and six children.
It is important to note that YEN.com.gh cannot immediately verify Captain Smart's claims. It is also unclear whether the audio emerged before or after the death of the late MP.

No wonder I said earlier that they've cleared him sharp.
