    Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, a candidate for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer position, has revealed the part he played in helping the party win the majority in Parliament.

    Before the party won the majority, he claimed, he had to pay a debt of one million Ghana cedis owed by the then-Constituency Chairman of Fomena.

    Speaking to NPP delegates in Tema, Ken Agyapong claimed that it was only through his intervention and the donation of GH1 million that Asiamah Amoako’s condition, which led to his joining the NPP in the House, was fulfilled. Asiamah Amoako is currently the second deputy speaker of parliament.

    “If not for me, the NPP will not have majority in parliament after the 2020 elections. Because after the election, NDC had 137 parliamentarians, NPP also had 137 and there was one independent candidate.

    “We wanted the independent candidate to join us and the condition he gave was that the NPP chairman for Adansi Fomena must resign before he joins us.

    “I spoke to the Adansi Fomena NPP chairman and he told me that he will have resigned but a rural bank, he owes GH¢1.5 million will take him to court if he is no longer the chairman of the party in the constituency,” he said in Twi.

    Asiamah Amoako joined NPP MPs to form the majority caucus after Ken Agyapong paid GH1 million of the Adansi Fomena NPP Chairman’s debt, forcing him to resign.

    Andrew Asiamah Amoako, the independent MP for Fomena, joined the NPP side in parliament so that they would control the House following the 2020 elections.

    Meanwhile, former President John Dramani Mahama has stated that he will create a Governance Advisory Council as part of his vision to enhance political governance, aid in the fight against corruption, and guarantee the country’s adherence to human rights.

    Speaking to National Democratic Congress (NDC) executives and supporters as part of his effort to lead his party to the 2024 elections, Mr. Mahama declared that members of the proposed Governance Advisory Council will include Ghanaians from all socioeconomic backgrounds, leaders of traditional and religious institutions, and representatives of civil society organizations.

    According to Mr. Mahama, the duties of the Council will include the yearly release of a State of Governance in Ghana report. Mr. Mahama is promising to wage a sustained war against corruption and bad governance when elected in 2024.
