Ghanaian gospel musician Great Ampong has publicly endorsed Kennedy Ohene Agyapong to become the flagbearer candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to the Ghanaian Gospel musician, his support for Kennedy Agyapong is till thy kingdom because irrespective of the outcome of the NPP primaries, he will still continue to support the Asin Central MP.
Telling why he admires Kennedy Agyapong, he said the politician’s honesty and boldness is what moved him to declare his support for him. He adds that he believes Hon Kennedy Agyapong can instil discipline in the country.
I am for Ken [Kennedy Agyapong] forever. I will support him till thy kingdom come. Whether he wins or not, I will continue to support him because he is someone who speaks the truth. God works with the truth so how will the country prosper if we refuse to speak the truth?” Great Ampong said in a video shared on his social media platform.
The NPP primaries are scheduled to happen on the 4th of November 2023 with Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, MP for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong, former MP for Mampong Francis Addai-Nimoh, and former agric minister, Dr Owusu Akoto Afriyie vying for the slot to become NPP’s flagbearer.
In the video, Great Ampong also seized the moment to criticise the court system in Ghana, saying that the judiciary lacks openness and justice in its decisions.
“People are in their homes crying because there is no justice in the country. The moment you speak the truth they tag you as arrogant and say all sorts of things about you,” he said.
“So if you are a poor person and you die in an accident, and your family wants to seek justice at the court, they should forget it because it won’t happen. We can go for all the loans to help fix the economy but if we don’t get honest leaders, the nation will continue to suffer,” Great Ampong added.
