The former Member of Parliament for Assin Central and a presidential aspirant of the party, Kennedy Agyapong has cooked the NPP’s Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe commonly known as Abronye DC.
On Monday April 28, 2025, in the ongoing NPP nationwide “Thank You Tour” there was an exchange of words between Kennedy Agyapong and Abronye DC.
Abronye, addressing the gathering tackled allegation levelled against him. He recounted how was accused of instigating a politically plot against a particular presidential candidate prior to the party’s internal elections last year over claims he was campaigning for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the 2024 presidential candidate of the NPP.
He also questioned the sincerity of persons preaching unity in the NPP, when, in his view, the same people had earlier sown seeds of discord within the party.
Abronye also rejected Kennedy Agyapong proposal that the party should grant amnesty to all former members suspended and those have left the party.
According Abronye, granting amnesty to people who had been punished by the party for misconduct would be a clear endorsement and promotion of indiscipline.
Abronye stated, “This party needs discipline, and I do not support such a proposal. Arrogance is what has brought us here. If you insult someone and later come to talk about unity, for me, that unity is artificially created.
Prof. Mike Oquaye’s report says it is our own utterances that the NDC used against us but if you do propaganda and someone comes to reply to you, don’t sit on social media to insult the person and later turn around to tell me to be your friend”.
Kennedy Agyapong on the other hand took offence to Abronye words as being directed at him and fired his shots describing him as a poor man with confidence who talks anyhow.
Kennedy Agyapong, “I am telling you the truth, nobody is a better man than the other but because of this party, some people talk as if they are men. They are not men. When it comes to monetary contributions, they cannot partake in it.
They have to go and beg and they talk as if the whole world is for them. If not for the sake of unity, some of them cannot even speak the way they speak because you are even shy coming to my house”.
He added, “With some, we buy cars for them and they will come out to do ‘too known’…I will respect you but I won’t respond to some people or else you would see a showdown…I have money; I don’t beg. Even you, poor people, think you can talk boldly, how about rich men like me? Please! Who born dog for you to talk anyhow?”.
Meanwhile, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President and the 2024 flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has stated the NPP needs to be mindful of its utterances against each other severely affected their fortunes in the 2024 elections.
According to Dr Bawumia, the NDC did not have a campaign message but capitalised on the NPP’s utterances against each other.
