Former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong
Ken Ohene Agyapong has officially withdrawn from the NPP’s National Thank You Tour—a decision that, quite frankly, comes as a welcome relief.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) stands for intelligence, knowledge, mutual respect, and a blend of both rich and poor members who are well-mannered and possess native wisdom. Unfortunately, Mr. Agyapong does not embody these values. We hope to see no more of him.
He cites the unfortunate stabbing of a KNUST student as his reason for pulling out of the tour. According to him, he had given the Katanga Hall gyama group money to sing his praises. But since when does paying a nwomkro group to perform at your mother’s funeral mean they genuinely admire you?
As the saying goes, “Empty barrels make the most noise.” This is a man who has served as a Member of Parliament for 24 years, yet has no meaningful track record in Parliament. Twenty-four years without a single significant contribution. A man who defines himself by money and empty bravado.
People follow him because he throws them crumbs. But even that, he reminds them the next day—boasting that he fed them. This is not leadership; it’s manipulation.
Both the Ashanti Team Report and the Mike Oquaye Report cite Mr. Agyapong’s foul mouth and acerbic tongue as key reasons for the NPP’s humiliating defeat. Just listen to him in Berekum:
“Mo ahiafuo mpo…”
“Yɛn asikafuo…”
“Who born dog?”
“I’ll give you a showdown…”
This is the man who wanted to lead the NPP—and become the President of Ghana by default? Thank you, Berekum, for opening our eyes.
Ken Ohene Agyapong is unlikely to change. As George Darko sang in “Ako Te Brofo”: “If a tiger falls into a river, it gets wet, but it doesn’t lose its stripes.” The Ken Agyapong we know is the same yesterday, today, and will be tomorrow. His threats and insults reveal not strength but a lack of emotional control. He is, quite simply, uncouth.
Ghana’s self-styled billionaire politician—Osikani Extraordinaire—is going once… going twice… going three times… GONE!
Ladies, bring out the big brooms. Let us sweep his back properly—so he never returns.
