Ashanti Democrat Condemn Allegations Against Ashanti Regional Minister, Wants Perpetrators Investigates
From Ernest Best Anane, Kumasi
The Ashanti Democrat, a political group in the Ashanti region, has expressed outrage over allegations made against the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, accusing him of involvement in illegal mining activities. The allegations, made by Mr. Wendell Nana Yaw Yeboah, Head of Mobilization at Democracy Hub, have been deemed “daring” and “extremely serious” by the group.
In a press conference held on November 21, 2025, the Ashanti Democrat, led by Jerry James Sukah, the President disclosed that he formally petitioned the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service to investigate the matter thoroughly and bring the truth to light.
The group believes that no public discourse should be built on falsehood, and no leader should be unjustly attacked without evidence.
The Ashanti Democrat described Dr. Amoakohene as a respected medical doctor and public servant who has dedicated his life to healing and public welfare. His commitment to fighting illegal mining and promoting the health and well-being of the people of Ashanti Region is well-known.
The group finds it “illogical” and “completely unthinkable” that Dr. Amoakohene would be involved in activities that destroy the health and future of the people. The Ashanti Democrat has warned anyone planning to fabricate accusations or spread malicious misinformation against Dr. Amoakohene to desist immediately.
The organization will not tolerate any attempts to tarnish the reputation of their leader, who has earned admiration across traditional, political, and civic lines.
The Ghana Police Service has been petitioned to investigate the allegations, and the Ashanti Democrat is calling for accountability and justice, emphasizing the need to protect the integrity of hardworking public servants.
