Corruption Allegation: I won’t honour CID Invite -Kennedy Agyepong

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central Kennedy Agyepong said even though he has not been invited, he would not honour an invitation from them.

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central Kennedy Agyepong has denied reports that he has been invited by officials of the Criminal and Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service to substantiate allegations he made against some government appointees.

Speaking on Accra-based Oman FM the MP said even though he has not been invited, he would not honour an invitation from them.

“Nobody has called me to come to the police station; I am not a thief or have lodged a complaint with the police? Even if they call me I won’t go. I will even go and take my evidence from the police.”

His comments come after the Communications Director at the Presidency Eugene Arhin said the CID has invited A Plus and is expected to extend an invitation to Agyapong soon.

Arhin said the investigation is in line with President Akufo-Addo’s resolution to investigate every corruption allegation levelled against a government official.

A Plus accused the deputy Chiefs of Staff at the Flagstaff House – John Jinapor and Francis Asenso-Boakye of extorting over 10, 000 Ghana cedis from people hoping to meet the President before they arranged a meeting.

After this allegation, Agyapong supported him saying Jinapor and Asenso Boakye are not the only corrupt officials at the Presidency.

However, Agyepong denied claims that he accused the Communications Minister, Ursula Ekuful of taking a bribe.

“I have never given any evidence against Ursula that she has taken bribe; I have never given any evidence against Asenso or Abu Jinapor so who is saying this? If they police are not careful the way I will treat them they will regret.  I believe the police are setting their own agenda because they were even asking me if I have any information on Abu. Nobody has invited me,” he stressed.
