Kennedy Agyepong, MP for Assin Central Constituency

Residents call on gods of Bole to strike Kennedy Agyepong to death
Some residents of Bole, hometown of former
President John Dramani Mahama are calling on the
god of the area to strike dead maverick politician
and lawmaker for Assin Central Constituency
Kennedy Ohene Agyepong.

They indicate that threats by Kennedy Agyepong to
commit suicide if Ibrahim Mahama who is their
kinsman is not jailed indicates that he has a
personal agenda against him for which reason he
speaks as though the law is in his bosom.

General Manager of Bole based Nkilgi FM and a
close associate of former President John Dramani
has disclosed that the gods of Bole will soon
strike him for pursuing what he described as a
personal agenda trying to use state institutions.

Speaking on Okay FM in Accra, Mr Haruna revealed
that Muslims, Christians as well as
traditionalists in the Bole area are all praying
for their son Ibrahim Mahama disclosing that the
gods of Bole are always on standby to assist any
indigene that is being wrongly persecuted.

“I will not be surprised to hear the gods of
Bole have struck dead Kennedy Agyepong because it
is clear he is the person behind the predicament
of Ibrahim Mahama”, he stated

“It is envy, jealousy and even witchcraft that
will make a person, hate his fellow man with a
passion to the extent of threatening to take his
life, just to see that person go to jail. You
(Kennedy) are not an officer of GRA and so why are
you frustrating our man? We are aware that Kennedy
Agyapong is behind this issue. He is even more
powerful than Nana Addo and that is why he has
ordered EOCO to investigate our beloved son”. He
alleged.

Bole residents since last week held series of
intercessory prayers for Ibrahim Mahama, who is
settling scores with Economic and Organised Crime
Office (EOCO) for dud cheques he gave to the
customs division of the Ghana Revenue Authority
(GRA)

Opinion leaders from the area Mohammed Hudu and
Iddi Mankuma who are leading the religious
exercise on Bole-based Nkiligi Fm disclosed that
they cannot leave their kinsman in his trying
moments.

According to them, residents of Bole are keenly
following events surrounding the invitation of Mr
Ibrahim Mahama who hails from Bole in the Northern
Region indicating that history is on his side and
so he will surely be vindicated and rise to more
greatness.

The angry opinion leaders recounted how Mr E.A.
Mahama, the father of Ibrahim Mahama was
persecuted by his adversaries but was vindicated
rising to become a Minister under Dr Kwame
Nkrumah’s government and wealthy man.

To this end, they called on both Muslims and
Christians in Bole to intercede for him urging the
traditionalists to also call on the gods of Bole
to expose those behind what they describe as the
“political persecution” of their son Ibrahim
Mahama.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Engineers and
Planners last week was ordered by the Economic and
Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to pay GH¢12.7m to
the Ghana Revenue Authority by May 8, 2017.

The amount represents duty for goods he cleared at
the Tema Port with the said dud cheques in 2015
plus interest. The interest on the amount was
worked by the Ghana Revenue Authority.

Ibrahim Mahama is allegedly being investigated by
EOCO over specific cheques he issued to the
customs division of the Ghana Revenue Authority
(GRA) at the ports to clear heavy duty equipment
imported into the country.
