Former
Member of Parliament for Asokwa constituency, Maxwell Kofi Jumah has
called the bluff Hon. Ken Agyapong, Assin Central Member of Parliament
over his recent threat to the party faithfuls.
Hon. Ken Agyapong,
one of the major financiers of the party, described the entire
hierarchy of the party as "thieves and corrupt" but seemed to have
escaped any sanctions from the party for his unguarded remarks.
Following
his negative comments about the leadership of the party, some members
called on the party’s Executives to summon and perhaps reproach him.
But
the outspoken NPP MP dared anyone to summon him, warning that whoever
leads the crusade for action to be taken against him, should be ready to
cough up 1.5 million dollars.
According to him, the party would
be "sorry" to summon him for any interrogation as they will have to
refund all monies due him to defray the cost of $2.5 million worth of
party paraphernalia he credited during the run-up to the 2012 general
elections.
“I have not had any invitation but if they start with
that, they (the party Elders) would be sorry because I just spoke to my
partner in China….who are those calling me? I will not honour the call
of any of the National Executive….What would happen if I leave the
party?...I will ensure I recover my monies before I leave”.
“…tell
them, if they are listening. They should make $1 million ready before
they call me or else, I will not mind them…if they joke with me they
will see what I’ll do to them. I am ready to leave the party. I don’t
care but I’ll reclaim my money before I leave because it is destroying
my business,” he blurted out on NEAT FM.
But speaking to Peacefmonline.com in an interview, Hon. Maxwell Kofi Jumah described the threats as a “joke” and was of the view the Assin Central MP will never go ahead with any such decision.
According
to him, he (Hon. Agyapong) is a dye-in-the-wool NPP activist and
therefore will not abandon the party in any way in spite of his
dissatisfaction with the attitude of some senior members.
“…I’m cocksure that he will never ditch the NPP,…He will never, no matter what the circumstance is.”
“He
has a lot of love and passion for the NPP…That’s just a joke. He was
just joking. Don’t take him serious…His love and passion for the party
is unquestionable; he will even contribute more to future endeavors of
the party.”
