Kwasi Kwarteng, a spokesperson for former Assin Central Member of Parliament Ken Agyapong, has explained that his boss has genuine concerns about working with Abronye, Adwoa Safo, KOKA, others.
According to Kwesi Kwarteng, calls from some party members demanding the sacking of Ken Agyapong over his outburst are not wise.
He argued that the expulsion of Ken Agyapong from the party, considering the current state of the NPP compared to 2016, when some party leaders were dismissed, and the party still went on to win power.
Kwesi Kwarteng highlighted that it would be better for the party to resolve its internal differences rather than remove Ken Agyapong.
Speaking in an interview on Asempa FM on June 21, 2026, Kwasi Kwarteng explained, “Let us assume, without admitting, that Kennedy was even wrong. You will still need him and his supporters. Instead of debating who is right or wrong, why don’t we come together, apologise to each other, and move on? Is that difficult?
“If you listen to his concerns, he was asking how he could work with Abronye, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, KOKA, Adwoa Safo, and others. Don’t you think he has genuine concerns?
“Do you think if these issues had been discussed behind closed doors, they would have become public? Ken is not a saint; he is a human being. Sacking him from the party who does it benefit?” he said.
“It is not only party members who will vote in the election. You will still need Kennedy Agyapong, his supporters, and the many people who look up to him,” he added.
His comment comes on the heels of Ken Agyapong, who has vowed to take action against members of his own party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), starting in June or July 2027.
According to Ken Agyapong, the NPP thinks he is stupid to come and follow them again, warning that from July 2027, they will see action from him.
Speaking on Net 2 TV, the former NPP flagbearer aspirant, Ken Agyapong, stated, “It will not be long when you travel the way they respect you, then when you get here. Somebody like KOKA is saying my head has been operated on. He does not know what will happen to him. NPP people, are you ready? I am saying June, July 2027, me and you action in Ghana, you will be surprised, you think I am stupid.
You think I am stupid to come and follow you guys again. If you were to say ten sins of Ken Agyapong, you wait and see what will happen. I am not afraid of you, you wait and see. I have given you the time, June 2027, you will see action in this country”.
Also, Ken Agyapong disclosed that he will not be intimidated or silenced by criticism from within the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Ken Agyapong comments follow the criticism he received following his remarks about the party for failing to complete and operationalise the Afari Military Hospital during its eight years in government.
Ken Agyapong dismissed suggestions that he was motivated by bitterness, adding that his comments were about national development rather than partisan interests.
He added, “The NPP says I am bitter. I will not say anything to them. They think it is about what they did during the campaign. They can’t shut me down. If Ghanaians want to know, they should ask them about Agenda 111 if they were able to complete one. They sold the contracts to other people and take 10 per cent”.
“NPP should be careful with me, saying I am bitter. If they provoke me, I will spill the beans all over the place,” he cautioned.
“In the NDC too, I was there when somebody brought a contract to my wife about 55 million dollars. She was asked to pay an advance of 7 per cent before they give it to her,” he alleged.
