Kennedy Agyapong and Abronye DC
The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has called for a ceasefire between Kennedy Agyapong and the Bono Regional Chairman of the NPP, Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, following their recent altercation.
According to Wontumi, the internal dispute does not reflect well on the NPP, and as a result, he is advocating for mediation between the two parties.
Speaking in an interview on Wontumi TV on May 4, 2025, he stated, “Kennedy, you are our elder brother. First of all, I plead with you, whatever has happened, please forgive, so that we can move past this issue.”
“In the same way, Chairman Abronye, I plead with you to also forgive and allow peace to prevail. It is not always that our elder siblings are right; sometimes, they are wrong. But because they are elders, we forgive them.”
“So I stand in the middle, pleading with all of you to forgive each other. The issue itself isn’t the problem rather, it’s how you react to it.”
Kennedy Agyapong had an altercation with Abronye DC during the party’s nationwide “Thank You Tour” on Monday, April 28, 2025.
Kennedy, who also contested as a presidential aspirant for the NPP, was part of the tour in Berekum in the Bono Region. The exchange occurred after Abronye addressed party supporters at the event.
While addressing the gathering, Abronye tackled critical issues he believed the party needed to resolve, including accusations against him.
He recounted claims that he had masterminded a politically motivated plot against a specific presidential candidate before the party’s internal elections last year.
He also faced criticism for his alleged allegiance to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP’s 2024 presidential candidate.
Abronye refuted all accusations and expressed his thoughts on what, in his opinion, led to the party’s loss of power.
“Arrogance is what has brought us here,” Abronye exclaimed.
He warned party leaders to desist from making statements that might give the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) an edge ahead of the 2028 elections.
He further cautioned against insults within the party while emphasising the need for genuine unity.
Although Abronye did not direct his remarks to a specific individual, Kennedy Agyapong, who later took his turn to speak, seemingly responded to Abronye with gestures and statements indirectly aimed at him.
