Minister for Housing, Asenso Boakye owns 12 houses across Ghana after just 6 years -Kennedy Agyapong

The Member of Parliament for Assin North and NPP Presidential Candidate Hopeful, Hon, Kennedy Agyapong has disclosed that the Minister for Housing, Asenso Boakye owns 12 houses across Ghana.

According to Kennedy Agyapong, six years ago, the Minister for Housing was living in a flat he did not own at Adenta Housing.

“Minister for Housing, Asenso Boakye six years ago lived at Adenta Housing. A flat not his own. He currently owns 12 houses across Ghana. Kennedy Agyapong has revealed.”

It is not clear if this revelation is part of the Showdown Hon. Kennedy Agyapong promised or it is retaliation to statements made by Asenso Boakye.

however, prior to this revelation, the Member of Parliament for Bantama, Asenso Boakye has taken a swipe at Kennedy Agyapong.

Flagbearer aspirant, Kennedy Agyapong according to the Minister made claims that the “minister of state from Bantama has told Delegates to vote for His Excellency, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to be elected presidential candidate of the Party so as to become more attractive to Ghanaians after 4 years of H.E John Mahama’s imminent Presidency.”.

But reacting to the claims by Kennedy Agyapong, the Minister indicated that “This blatant lie is not only ludicrous but also politically puerile. The NPP Government is deeply committed to working hard to improve the well-being of Ghanaians and by so doing, earn their continued goodwill”.

My attention has been drawn to some regrettable remarks made by Hon Kennedy Agyepong, Member of Parliament for Assin Central and aspiring presidential candidate for the New Patriotic Party at a rally held in Accra on Saturday, 16th September, 2023.

The said remarks are to the effect that a certain minister of state from Bantama has told Delegates to vote for His Excellency, Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to be elected presidential candidate of the Party so as to become more attractive to Ghanaians after 4 years of H.E John Mahama’s imminent Presidency. Even though he did not explicitly mention my name (purposely), I’m currently the only minister of state from Bantama, so I reasonably assume he’s referring to me.

This blatant lie is not only ludicrous but also politically puerile. The NPP Government is deeply committed to working hard to improve the wellbeing of Ghanaians and by so doing, earn their continued goodwill.

The false attribution by Hon Ken Agyepong is clearly a mischievous lie deliberately made with the sole intention to cause disaffection for me, sully my good standing within the Party and neutralize whatever leverage I have on the Delegates.

My view on the NPP presidential primary is widely known to the party members and it’s that; Vice President Mahamadu Bawumia is the extraordinary candidate that the NPP needs to break the ‘eight’.

I urge all to disregard it and focus instead on building unity that will serve as the bedrock for winning the 2024 election.
