Elderly statesman and former diplomat K.B Asante has endorsed calls for NPP MP for Assin North, Kennedy Agyapong to be sent to court if indeed the police have enough evidence that he actually incited violence with his latest comments on his radio station Oman FM.
Mr. Kennedy Agyepong was arrested on Monday after allegedly making some tribal comments to incite Ashantis against other ethnic groups in the country.
The outspoken lawmaker has already spent two days in BNI cells after attempts by the leadership of the NPP to get him released on bail failed.
Dr. KB Asante who is also a former chairman of the Ga-Dangbe council told XYZ News that incitement is punishable by law and anyone found culpable must be made to face the full rigors of the law.
�If anybody is heard openly saying something to incite hatred to a particular people therefore he is arrested and placed before court he must be charged.
�What do you need to investigate after all, if Kennedy Agyapong said what I hear he supposed to have said and the Police have evidence about it, he should be taken to court.
�There shouldn�t be any hullabaloo about investigations and long procedures and so on�he must be charged within a matter of hours� K.B Asante said.
