The vociferous Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has disclosed that President AAkufo-Addo is being pressured by some members in NPP to sack him from the party.
He said most of these guys calling for his sack are Members of Parliament and Ministers from the Ashanti and Eastern Regions.
“When I was in China they were writing letters to convince the president to sack me from the party, it was John Boadu who defended me…and I don’t blame the president because everyone knows he likes me and so persistently they tell him, he is over pampering me, why would he not support them to sack me from the party”, he said.
He also said there were too many ingrates and backbiting within the NPP and vowed to expose them.
Kennedy Agyapong’s many talks and counsels on radio and TV are regarded as noise by some members of the NPP.
In 2017, he leveled wild allegations against some unnamed presidential staffers indicating that they demand a minimum of $20,000 from persons seeking to see the president before allowing them, a comment that has been widely criticized by the party.
“President Kufuor during his time realised he had made mistakes but it was too late and this government is doing the same mistake. They are always calling my name, the pressure on him [Akufo-Addo] to sack me from the party, he called John Boadu to write a letter. I’m pained but I’m quiet, on the said day, I cried before Frema [Chief of Staff]”, he said.
Agyapong has hinted that he is likely to bow out of parliament in 2020.
