The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central, has shockingly threatened, he would expose the party to the world, the undemocratic means through which his party, won the 2016 presidential and parliamentary elections.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, known for speaking his mind, the elections which made Nana Akufo-Addo of the NPP, President of Ghana with some 53.85 percent votes, was won through crude means.
He has since dared anybody, who wants to challenge what he holds as evidence to come forward, and he would spill the beans.
“I mean those NPP people who have vowed to collapse my businesses saying they will bring me down…if they joke, the things I will say in Ghana…the way we won the elections.
We did not win the elections on fair grounds. I am warning them for the last time. If they say they will bring me down, I will be the first to bring the NPP down before I am disgraced”, the man who is sometimes called NPP’s “untouchable” said.
But a national chairman hopeful, Fred Amankwah-Sarfo, has called on the NPP leadership, to punish the MP for gross indiscipline, because he is going overboard.
In an interview with Angel FM’s Alexis the Godson, Mr. Amankwaa Sarfo noted that, Kennedy Agyapong must be called to order before he sends the party back to the opposition.
Kennedy Agyapong, described by his party people as “maverick politician” has accused the Akufo-Addo-led government of many things, including corruption say there are elements within the party who are hell bent on bringing him down by collapsing his businesses which he won’t take lying low.
He added that, he currently cannot pay his children’s school fees, have invested so much into the NPP thinking he was going to get government contracts to execute to recoup his money.
At party event over the weekend, Kennedy Agyapong, complained bitterly about conducts of some big wigs in his party and mentioned that he has not benefitted in any way from the Nana-Addo led administration aside receiving GH¢40,000 from Afenyo Markins, a colleague in parliament who used him, Kennedy Agyapong’s name to win a Ghana COCOBOD contract.
Mr. Agyapong, who prides himself as a financier of the party said this on his Madina- based, Oman FM last week. His comments follow claims by him that since the party won power, he is yet to receive a single contract from the government, despite his financial contributions and effective campaigns which secured electoral victory for the NPP in 2016 against incumbent John Dramani Mahama.
“The way I am angry… the NPP will collapse soon. They have vowed to disgrace me and I will disgrace them first”, he said on Accra-based Asempa FM last week.
Recently, he went on radio, saying some selfish and greedy bigwigs in the NPP have shockingly formed 800 firms to do business with the entangled Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST).
These NPP bigwigs, he claimed have schemed to prosecute an agenda of running down the embattled BOST MD, Alfred Obeng Boateng, following his refusal to heed to their selfish demands.
The MP, who reveals the under fire MD financed the NPP campaign said “Me, I have told him to resign but before that he should make sure he is innocent of all the accusation leveled against him so that Ghanaians will know how diligent and trustworthy he is.
Otherwise this allegation will affect his private life. How can one person satisfy all the 800 companies brought by NPP members who are seeking to do business with BOST? People are going round gossiping about the MD. He should resign and go his way.
NPP people are seriously undermining Alfred Obeng, because they want his position; a son of a member of the Council of State, is going round claiming the job of new BOST MD. When ahead of the 2016 elections, Alfred Obeng, donated monies through me to the Ashanti Region, where was his father?
Instead of some NPP members working hard and helping the government to ensure development of the country, so that we can all reap the benefits, people are rather scrambling for positions for their personal gains”.
He has also been captured at NPP gathering, expressing his anger claiming sympathizers and financiers of the main opposition party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are being awarded big government contracts at the expense of NPP financiers and very dedicated supporters.
Meanwhile, a national chairman hopeful, Fred Amankwah-Sarfo, has called on the party leadership to punish the MP for gross indiscipline.
It is not clear, if the governing party, will heed to this call, especially so when in the past, the party had endorsed some of his actions and entertained his utterances and attacks on party bigwigs like ex-president John Kufuor, former Chief of Staff, Kwadwo Mpiani and other political opponents.

Ken, God is the only one who promotes without issues. Why are you fretting? When God blesses you, He adds no sorrow. I suggest you seek counsel or help. Something is not going well with you. You are not God, you are not the President. We are all citizens and we want Ghana to do better. Are you sure you do not need deliverance? You worried all our former presidents, crying wolf, wolf all the time. I think NPP is not in power because of your selfish interest. You tried disgracing Ibrahim Mahama, brother of Ex-President Mahama forgetting all the employment he gives Ghanaians. Learn to cover your naked father, it comes with blessings. Check the story of Noah in the Bible. I am not saying you don't employ Ghanaians but you are too loud and troublesome. For this sitting President, you can't bully him or push him around. Check yourself Ken, you are not an angel. Be wise Ken, and grow up, you are disgracing your family. I love all our ex- Presidents, God used them in different ways. I love Ghana. If you have nothing good to offer Ghana, then Ken ***barred word***. God bless our homeland Ghana.
Ken I always support you but it seems you are going overboard. Please sit an reflect on your utterances. Dont you think your opponent can use against. In fact you are being childish. Kindly walk to the president office and discuss your contract with him. Mr. President please listen to the aggrieve person in the party before you destroy the party.
Ken is simply st.u.pi.d. Infact , an amateur politician for that matter.
That is what NDC is into and u are one of them so comot and lets think, you only read to comment and not to understand, cheap politics
Kennedy is like a dying giraffe fighting for its dear life. He's desperate and looking for sympathetic attention. Lets not listen to his false stories and expect something positive from Nana Addos led government. Now he is claiming NPP used dubious means to unseat the NDC, meaning he didnt help the NPP to win power so what is he expecting from the Nana Addo led government.
sometimes i wonder if people read the stories at all or they just comment on personalities aaaa. No where in the story has been able to state categorically he said so, all herald seeks to do is propaganda and you people who dont read also buy into it....INDEED IT WAS SAID SOME GHANAIANS DONT LIKE READING AND THEY ARE THE NDC's
There is a need for authorities to investigate the allegation made by Hon.Kennedy Agyapong.There is something to it,I pray we do justice to the issue and call Ken to order. Npp and NDC should all take Ken to court.
Have u guys listened to the tape? Peacefmonline is being mischievious, they have reported different story here. Ken has been misunderstood.
go ahead we dont care u talk too much
I think it is high time this man is sanctioned on his unguided comments. He always dares but has little or no facts. From the report he is angry because he has not got his share of the contracts to enable him reclaim his money. U financed the party for fame and that is why u can always talk this way and go Scot free . Nana will give the contracts to only those who can deliver good jobs whether NPP or other party members because they are all Ghanaians. U supported the party with money and u want contracts if all who voted for the party also demand something will your party survive. I don't think this man has anything to reveal because NPP victory was real despite the Electoral Commission forming aliance with the NDC. NPP should look for other sources of funds and ignore this man since he cannot be trusted with party secretes and confidential issues.
