Kennedy Ohene Agyapong is a politician and businessman

The Spokesperson for Kennedy Agyapong campaign team, Kwasi Kwarteng, has rejected any rumors that the absence of Kennedy Agyapong at the party’s thanksgiving service on Sunday has to do with plans to establish a separate party.

Speaking on Prime Morning on JoyPrime on Monday, February 16, 2026, Kwasi Kwarteng cleared the air by urging that both he and the former Assin Central MP had been out of town at the time of the thanksgiving service.

“I was also out of town, like Ken. Ken himself was out of town. But I am here speaking for the party, and I think that should be enough,” he said.

Kwarteng insisted that there is no basis for claims that Agyapong intends to form a new political party.

He stated that reading political motives into attendance at a single event was both unfair and illogical, noting that several prominent party stalwarts were also absent.

Among those he listed as being absent too were ex-President Nana Akufo-Addo and former President John Agyekum Kufuor.

“President Akufo-Addo was not there. Is he also going to start his own party? President Kufuor was not there. Is he also going to start his own party?” Kwarteng asked.

Kwasi also referenced lawyer and former minister Samuel Atta Akyea, widely known for his instrumental role in the campaign of former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

Kwarteng suggested that even if Atta Akyea had not attended, it would not warrant questions about his loyalty.

“Assuming, without admitting, that he was not there, does that also mean his loyalty to the party is in doubt?” he asked.
