    Shame in you so-called NDC politicians and sympathisers who were like armed robbers with the main aim to kill and steal! You are worse than armed robbers and I pray that you remain in opposition forever!

  • HONESTY 7 years ago

    NPP has over the decades always sown bitterness to both Ghanaians and foreigners who have sacrificed for the country but they don't like it when it happens to them.


    This foolish man wished for no peace in Ghana if he did ...

    Hallidu Gyiwah was a saint. Rawlings violently overthrew a constitutionally elected government. Anyone who worked for the PNDC highest level is a traitor and must arrested and charged with treason regardless of the fucking in ...

  • BlindMan 7 years ago

    A very confused individual!
    Agyarko seems to be playing fire with Nana's theme: "any man/woman who is thinking of joining my administration with the aim of making -----------------, must not come"!
    Mr Agyarko must take a ...

  • Ruthan 7 years ago

    Just imagine what would have happened if John Dramani Mahama/NDC govt had been overthrown through a military coup who are pro NPP and the same maltreatment handed to them?

  • aikins (mission accomplished) 7 years ago

    Oh so you know the story already ? My friend use your head.

  • Michael K. Tettevi. 7 years ago

    I wonder if Mr. Boakye Kyeremanteng Agyarko was physically involved in the Halidu Gyiwa and co. coup attempt that caused him to be apprehended and shot whereby he nearly died or he was entirely innocent.

  • Ijahman 7 years ago

    Nonsense,how nany Ghanaians became victims of that rule?

  • Naakrobaka 7 years ago

    Look, l know of people who were taken in a similar manner and shot at close range. If you know what happened in those years, you will not doubt Mr. Agyarko's report.

  • HONESTY 7 years ago

    Anyone shot and who nearly died will have a wound somewhere. Why is he not showing it.
    God is wise and let's the body keep record of any body attack, I need to see hypocrite Agyarko's.

  • KnYc(USMC) 7 years ago

    Nonsense do you want him to show his dick to you so that you can suck it? Got the fu.ck out of here.

  • John 7 years ago

    I told you NDC followers reason like animals,its painful to have the names of such ppl like Honesty on our electoral register.He expects Boakye Agyarko to undress in front of the vetting committee.

    Shut your mouth. You sycophant. God will judge all the PNDC.

    A pure civilian know less about types of firing being at close or long. Its likely the soldiers were in a hurry for another task and therefore,shot aimlessly or felt his action does'nt merit such condemnation. He was'nt meant ...

    Boakye Agyarko story at the vetting commitee was out of order.Where was he during the "truth"commission.?I sympathise with him but should the vetting commitee of parliament open the AFRC&PNDC era to non nominees also?

  • Atoapoma Abransamadu 7 years ago

    Sam Okujeto wanted to know the reason for the gap years in his CV, which he has wisely omitted. Boakyi had no option but to tell him and the panel the full story.

  • John 7 years ago

    The brains of NDC followers are like that of animals,don't waste your time on Salami he hasn't even read the story.

    More evidence needed on the shooting story. He maybe lying to justify his political asylum status in the US.

    It being true or false, it is seen from the story that he made the best of the situation and bettered himself. Would we say, that this is what helped him attain the heights he has in life? Be thankful in all things.

  • Kofi 7 years ago

    I am NPP but Boakye Agyarko's problem is that he talks too much. Instead of having simple answer he talks plenty and even fails to answer directly questions that he is asked. That character is not good.

  • Dan Duruwah 7 years ago

    He talks too much, you are right. All he has to do is to show the scar in his groin and tell us which Doctor healed his gun wound. That will make us believe his STORY. Show us the scar in your groin. Mr. Boakye Agyarko
