VIDEO: Ken Agyapong Withdraws From NPP’s ‘Thank You Tour’

Former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, has officially announced his withdrawal from the ongoing “Thank You” tour by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), citing security threats to his supporters.

His decision follows a violent incident involving the stabbing of a student from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), affiliated with Unity Hall.

The victim, a member of Unity Hall’s Jama group, had been hired by Agyapong’s team to perform at the event held at the Pentecost Church in Bantama, Kumasi.

According to Agyapong’s team, a wealthy friend of the former MP who attended the event gave money to the Jama group. However, a group of heavily built, gun-wielding men—believed to be affiliated with the NPP—allegedly emerged and forcibly took the money.

A confrontation broke out between the Jama group and the armed men, during which gunshots were fired. In the chaos, one member of the Jama group was stabbed.

The victim was rushed to the emergency unit of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital and is currently receiving treatment.

Kennedy Agyapong and his team have since lodged an official complaint with the Kumasi Central Police Command.

Speaking to the media on Wednesday, Agyapong confirmed his withdrawal from the tour and vowed to pursue justice for the victim.

“Because of what yesterday, myself and my team want to pull out because lives are threatened, I don’t think I can protect my team enough. So we want out so that Dr Bawumia can do his campaign.”
