MP for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong has recounted how he was sacked by former President John Agyekum Kufour from his house.
according to Kennedy in a recent interview, Ex-Prez Kufour sacked him from his house after over an alleged lie told by a young man called Ato Eshun Kufuor.
from Kennedy, the issue was all about the 17 presidential aspirants which were included Alan Kyeremateng and Nana Akuffo Addo in 2008.
according to the MP that Ato guy told Dr. Richard Winfred Anane that he [Kennedy Agyapong] was going to support Nana Akufo-Addo instead of President Kufuor’s preferred candidate, Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen.
that was after Kennedy once met Ato and in a conversation he told Ato that that when he was going to America, Alan Kyerematen was leading all the aspirants but upon his return, the support for Alan Kyerematen had shifted with frenzy excuses.
he said;
“Alan had raised about 13 billion [cedis] and some people didn’t understand why, and they were using that against him. So, I said because of the fundraising, now Nana Addo is slightly ahead of Alan,”
according to Kennedy, it was reported wrongfully to Dr. Anane which he also told Ex-Prez Kufour.
“Until last year, I thought it was Alan who had called President Kufuor to tell him, not knowing it was Dr. Anane who told him [Kufuor] that I don’t support Alan… the way the man loved me to death, he sacked me from his house without giving me any chance,”.
He added,
“He didn’t give me a chance. He didn’t know but I think now he’s realized I never did anything of that sort. I never campaigned against Alan until he [Kufuor] sacked me from his house.
with the exact words of President Kufuor Kennedy Agyapong revealed;
“You small boy, anybody you asked me to give the position to I did but you one thing, you can’t do for me and you are opposing me.”
he further stressed;
“and I don’t know today what Dr. Anane told President Kufuor that destroyed the relationship. I have never done anything like that, so I came out and said if he doesn’t want to give me a chance then hey, I’ll support Nana Akufo-Addo. I was quiet till the last minute when I asked the delegates to vote for Akufo-Addo,”
