The Founder and leader of the International God’s Way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim, has taken a swipe at former New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Kennedy Agyapong, claiming his presidential ambitions were influenced by pastors and not personal conviction.
During a sermon to his congregation on Sunday, June 15,2025, Bishop Obinim alleged that Agyapong never originally intended to run for the presidency but was pushed into the idea by members of the clergy.
“Quote me anywhere Kennedy Agyapong never had the idea of becoming president of this country. It was the pastors that said it to him, and he realized he wanted to become president. If he knew that earlier, he wouldn’t have done a lot of things,” Obinim claimed.
The controversial bishop suggested that Agyapong’s more reserved public posture in recent times stems from his political aspirations.
“Because he wants to be president, he is quiet now. The tiger has become quiet because he wants to be president,” Obinim remarked.
Referencing past public spats, including Agyapong’s widely publicized feud with him and media personality Afia Schwarzenegger, Obinim said such confrontations would have been avoided if the former Assin Central MP had political ambitions from the beginning.
“Do you know that if he knew he wanted to be president, all these fights with me and Afia Schwarzenegger wouldn’t have happened?” he stated.
