Ken Agyapong, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, has once again attacked the former Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, calling him a liar.

Speaking to NPP delegates ahead of the party’s presidential primaries, Ken Agyapong stated he will still repeat it again that Dr Bawumia is a liar, as he has a list of things he said that were lies.

Ken Agyapong stated, “Some days ago, they were saying I, Ken Agyapong, should apologise. You have backed people to criticise me after calling him a liar; they are handling him as if he were an egg. He is a liar.

I have repeated it again, he is a liar, today they should go and say it on TV everywhere that I kennedy Agyapong, say he is a liar. He is a liar. I can list several things he has said that are lies, but the NPP is covering up because they want him to win. I have said it, he is a liar”, he added.

The former Assin Central MP further rallied for support from the people of the Central Region, telling them to have faith as this time the president will be from the region.

Ken Agyapong stated, “The people of Akan have become pitiful. If you can go and stand at Sekeyere Afraim plains and say, you are from the North, we should vote for you, and you got Asante’s and people of Akan following you.

When we get to Assin Central, we will show them, have faith, people of Assin, all the time you are being used like a doormat, they use the Central Region for power after they walk all over us. Out of 23 seats, we can claim 19 seats, but they give us two ministers of a pathetic ministry. This time, the president is also coming from the Central region”.

Also, Ken Agyapong, speaking to some delegates after the NPP peace pact, was later heard echoing that he would not apologise to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

The former Assin Central MP highlighted that he would not be pressured into withdrawing his claims, adding that his comments formed part of his account of events at the Peace Pact ceremony.

Speaking to the delegates, Ken Agyapong stated, “I will not apologise. I will apologise my foot. I don’t fear anybody,”

Ken’s refusal to apologies stem from his outburst to comments made by the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, but he attributed them to Dr Bawumia.

According to Wontumi, Professor Adu Boahen was not retained by delegates in 1996 after contesting the 1992 election due to poor health.

Chairman Wontumi made these claims while speaking to NPP delegates in the Ashanti Region.

He noted that the claim is in a book authored by Apenten Appiah-Menka, who was an associate of Professor Adu Boahen.

Kennedy Agyapong, reacting to the statement, fired a personal attack at Dr Bawumia, calling him a liar.

Mr Agyapong stated, “I have never seen a liar like our former flagbearer before. This man is a liar for saying that Adu Boahen did not contest because he was sick, you should not vote for a liar, a man who is lying to have power”.

“Listen to the history, Adu Boahen contested in 1992, and he won but lost the general election in 1996. The former flagbearer is in Kumasi, saying Adu Boahen was sick.  Kufuor contested Adu Boahen, and he beat him to become the flagbeaerr, he was fighting to go on oppose, and they did not agree.

Someone who wants to lead this country, and you are lying and distorting history, don’t vote for someone like this. He has been given a nickname that he is a liar. He is a liar, and the people will not vote for him”.

He added, “When I heard him yesterday, a presidential candidate who wants people to vote for him will look eyeball and eyeball and lie, he is a big liar for saying Adu Boahen was sick, go and check history, I am more popular in this country than him, those who know him know him as a liar that is why we lost”.
