In other news, Kennedy Agyapong has said that if elected president of Ghana, he would give politicians who may have been embezzling public funds a six-month grace period to return them.
The candidate for the presidency of the ruling New Patriotic Party in the 2024 elections, a member of parliament for the Assin Central constituency, claims he would use the same strategy as former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari to recover stolen public funds from former appointees.
He declared on his X page that any former government appointee who is found to have stolen public funds after the six-month grace period will be subject to the full force of the law.
“To be honest, my approach will be Buhari’s own. Anybody who feels that he has stolen Ghana’s money should bring it We will give you 6 months, and if we find you, you will face the law,” Agyapong wrote on Friday, October 6, 2023.
Agyapong, the representative for Assin Central in parliament, has urged young men to stop dating multiple women.
