Christian Kwabena Andrews, popularly known as Osofo Kyiri Abosom—founder of the Life Assembly Worship Center and a former presidential candidate—has revealed that he popped champagne following Kennedy Agyapong’s defeat in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearership election.
The clergyman expressed immense joy over the results, asserting that Agyapong lacked the necessary merits to lead a political party or ascend to the presidency.
Speaking on Nyankonton Mu Nsem via Rainbow Radio 87.5FM, Kyiri Abosom argued that Agyapong’s conduct during the campaign was unbecoming of a statesman.
He specifically pointed to the candidate’s rhetoric, questioning how a politician who publicly labeled his own colleagues as corrupt and dishonest could be deemed fit for the nation’s highest office.
Note: I have corrected spelling and grammar within these quotes while preserving the original sentiment.
“I popped champagne after Kennedy Agyapong lost the presidential primary. I was filled with joy and prayed for all those who voted against him. He went about describing his own party members as corrupt and thieves. Kennedy Agyapong is not someone fit to be elected as a candidate, let alone a president. He even described the members as senseless, and yet he wanted them to elect him as the candidate to represent them.”
“The delegates of the party have done so well, and I commend them for voting against him. He should learn lessons from what has happened. He will certainly go into retirement from political activities.”
