Kennedy Agyapong insists he will not relent on telling the truth

Kennedy Agyapong, MP for Assin North

Assin North MP Kennedy Agyapong who was detained for three nights by the BNI for inflammatory comments he made on his radio station Oman FM has said he will not relent on telling the truth.

He was charged with treason felony, attempted genocide and terrorism for the comments he made.

The MP was mobbed by hundreds of people when he arrived in his constituency for the first time since his detention Saturday.

Although he stated he will not be cowed by the charges, the MP urged the youth in particular to refrain from using intemperate language.

Central regional correspondent Richard Kojo Nyarko told Joy News that Kennedy Agyapong’s brought activities in the constituency to a ‘standstill’.

The MP advised that it is beneficial to speak in decent language when communication cautioning that, their love for him should not employ them to engage in any violent act.

In another development, the New Patriotic Party Member of Parliament aspirant for Ablekuma South, Ursula Owusu has challenged the police to provide proof of their claims that she has refused to assist in investigations into a case of assault against her.

This follows claims by Acting Police Public Relations Officer for the Accra Command, Sergeant Kwabena Danso that Ursula is yet to honour an invitation to assist in investigations into her assault at Odododiodoo.

She was assualted by machomen allegedly hired by the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC’s) candidate for the area, Nii Lante Vanderpuye, who has denied the claim.

But Ursula Owusu, who denied the claims by the police, told Joy News she has reasons to suspect the police are just providing a cover for their own inactions.

She explained that she has given whatever information needed for the investigations to the police and has even gone to the crime scene with the police divisional commander.

“I have submitted my statement, I have submitted my medical reports, I have given them names of those who could assist with the investigations…”

She vowed never to let the case die a natural death. “…I just want to assure them (the police) that I have no intentions of letting this case go.”
