The National Communication Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi has filed an official complaint at the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) against the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong for allegedly threatening his life.
The MP is said to have threatened to organise thugs to physically assault Sammy Gyamfi on Accra based Asempa FM’s flagship programme dubbed ‘Ekosii sen’ on 4th of August, 2020.
Mr. Kennedy Agyapong stated among other things that, if our client does proceed with his advocacy on national issues in a particular manner, he shall in a matter of three seconds organize his thugs to beat and or finish our client mercilessly”, part of the complaint widely shared online read.
Lawyers for Sammy Gyamfi claimed they had found “credible” evidence showing that Kennedy Agyapong had “contracted some thugs to carry out” his threats on their client’s life.
Sammy Gyamfi’s lawyers said they thus “feel compelled to formally write and lodge a complaint against Mr. Kennedy Agyapong” to protect their client’s life.
The NDC’s communicator is, therefore, requesting for investigations to commence into the conduct of Mr. Kennedy Agyapong in accordance with the Criminal Offenses Act of Ghana, 1960 (Act 29.)
