New Patriotic Party Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong says he will personally ensure that former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), Dr. Stephen Kwabena Opuni, is put behind bars.
According to him, Dr Opuni presided over corruption during his tenure and believes this affected cocoa production in Ghana, hence he must be exposed and jailed to serve as a deterrent to others.
“Opuni will go to jail and I will make sure he pays dearly for his crimes. If we refuse to jail him, Ghanaians will vote against us in the next four years and so we need to get corrupt officials like him away from the country” he said.
Mr Kennedy Agyapong was speaking on Adom TV’s Morning Show “Badwam” Tuesday.
President Akufo-Addo, in a letter dated January 12, 2017, and signed by the Executive Secretary to the President, Nana Asante Bediatuo, directed Dr. Opuni to vacate his post pursuant to section 14(1) of the Presidential (Transition) Act, 2012 (Act 845).
Hon Kennedy Agyapong argues that Dr Opuni may have been removed from office, but his “deals” had cost the country dearly and therefore “it is time we make him pay for his bad deeds”.
Mr Kennedy Agyapong further alleged that the COCOBOD boss sneaked into his office and started shredding documents believed to be fishy contracts he signed while in office to cover up from the incoming transition team.
“Opuni went to his office on Tuesday at 1 am and started shredding documents. He again went there on Wednesday at 2 am to do the same thing and I will expose him. Why is he doing that, is it because he knew he would be sacked” he quizzed.
“What he forgot was that he already took a snap shot of those documents and we will deal with him drastically” he declared.

Even if NPP can't do anything for this country at least they shouldn't let Opuni go scot free or else they lose the next election. Lock at what He did to the cocoa nursery workers? it is now revealed that we paid Ghs 500 mean while we are being paid Ghs380 why? Opuni why? Opuni must go to jail.
Ken (mentally challenged) cannot jail a fly, mark it on the wall. Hmmm, he does not know Dr Opuni well. Talk is cheap
@ken - Kennedy Agyapong has NEVER EVER asked anybody to kill Ewes and Gas: you can find the recording and listen to it again. Stop the lies and propaganda!!
Why did workers at cocoa board jubilate over Opuni's exist? This Opuni guy must be investigated properly. I learnt he smuggled cocoa and used the proceed to finance the NDC. Opuni and Ibrahim Mahama have been misbehaving alot in this country. They were the brains behind the naa ayeley ametefe cocaine deal. Actually they were doing it for JM. We are praying that this greedy people go to jail for thier crimes. Ghana must work again. Nana Addo will make Ghana great again
WHAT KENNEDY IS SAYING IS TRUE.AM A STAFF OF COCOBOD.IF OPUNI DOESNT GO TO JAIL THEN WE WILL VOTE NPP OUT IN 2020.HE HAS BEEN SHREDDING DOCUMENTS BEFORE HE LEFT OFFICE.MAHAMA'S WIFE IS PART OF OPUNI'S DEALS.THEY ALL HAVE TO GO TO JAIL.
you should have being in jail urself by now. you remember those stetements u made in 2012 about kill ewes and gas? you like to talk toooooooo much
THESE ***barred word*** NDC ***barred word*** ON THIS PLATFORM TALK AS IF ITS COMING FROM THEIR ANUSS. HAS THIS MAN EVER TALKED WITHOUT EVIDENCE? THEN PREPARE URSELF FOR LORDINA'S OWN TRIAL. FOOOLLLS
The name of the game is evidence and convincing argument in court but not cheap talk talk on radio. Even Woyome is walking free though he accepted making payments. Even murderers sometimes go Scot free because of lack of evidence as well as failure of the prosecutors to drive home their arguments.
KENNEDY YOU THINK YOUR PARTY IS IN POWER,SO YOU CAN PUT EVERYBODY INTO JAIL,WE WILL PUT YOU ALSO INTO CONTRACT KILLING,YOU THINK WE ARE LIVING IN FREE WORLD,KWA-SEA.
this is a blatant lie from Kennedy Agyepong. in as much as you kennedy does not like opuni doesnt mean you should tarnish his image. Plssssssssssss
