He honoured an invitation at the Police Criminal Investigations Department (CID) office and upon his exit, was taken into custody by EOCO officials.

His arrest and subsequent detainment sparked a political firestorm as top NPP officials besieged the EOCO offices, calling for his release.

On Thursday, EOCO granted him bail in the sum of GH₵50 million.

NPP senior leaders described the bail amount as unreasonable and claimed the government was using it to illegally keep Wontumi in custody beyond the legally mandated 48-hour period.

"He was arrested in a rambo-style… you interrogate him, he makes himself available, and your next thing is ‘go and bring title properties worth GH₵50 million."
"What kind of country are we in. Have they looked at the Constitution? They should vary the bail term, the man is unwell. He’s in their [EOCO] custody, they know, so they should vary. Wontumi will not run away." Minority leader Afenyo Markin said.

Wontumi's mansion sparks reactions

Ghanaians shared their opinions on the viral video of Wontumi's mansion, with some calling for an uprising against politicians for wasting taxpayer money.

Dockteegh said:

"Charley, Ghanaian youth are not serious ooo. How? Taxpayers' money paaa. The youth must rise up against these politicians oo."

Alic.ebrako wrote:

"At least he has developed the place. Nice, it’s good he didn’t chop all the money."

Dj.nana.g commented:

"Granted, he is a businessman, but if he breaks the laws of the land, then I'm sorry he has to face the consequences. We are tired of covering up for people's greed, corruption, and selfishness. Until we all condemn what is wrong, our politicians will play us against each other with NPP/NDC theatrics."
