Bluntness can be a mark of integrity in leadership? How then do you define the massive looting of Ghana government contracts? Will you term that as 'Positive Looting'?

GETING FAT CONTRACT DEALS NOT BY COMPETITIVE TENDERING BUT BY CRONYISM AND TRIBALISM IS AKIN TO STEALING STATE PROPERTIES. GO AND VOTE FOR KENEDY- WE SHALL SEE WHAT HE WILL GET FROM THE NATIONAL VOTE- THAT IS WHAT MATTERS.

Are stars and the moon on the ground that we walk on? I believe you know the answer to the question you just posed, but you're too ashamed to admit the obvious. Strip Martin Looter Ken of his looted government assets, and Ken will look worse than Kofi Brokeman. This con man spent his entire years in Parliament doing nothing but using his political connections in both the Kufuor and Akufo-Addo administrations to massively loot the Ghana government and then sheepishly brag about how he 'worked hard' to acquire his wealth. You either are being fooled by Ken or you must be riding on his gravy train for you to pose that question of yours.

Ken Agyapong is a functional illiterate. He is too emotional and also talks way too much with little to zero action. These are not characteristics of a leader. He should stay in the private sector and leave politics.

If it takes a functional illiterate leader to make Ghana great again, so be it.

Martin Looter Ken is no illiterate, he's just a shameless looting bandit. Illiterates deserve to be respected, but looters deserve nothing but condemnation.

Sometimes I wonder what goes into the thought process that makes people think so highly of a corrupt, criminally minded drug dealer? This man should not be allowed anywhere near the corridors of power. His crude, semi-educated arguments are best suited for apketeshie bar druken outbursts. We need to get serious as a country and get away from these idiots in our political space!

It's obvious that you and that shameless Martin Looter Ken are mistaking the saying "A luta continua" to mean "The looting continues". Heck no, that phrase means "The struggle continues". The struggle against mad looters like Martin Looter Ken is still in full force. Ken isn't fit to be a village chief let alone President of Ghana.

In Africa-and particularly in Ghana-the temperament and calibre of Hon. Kennedy Agyapong are exactly what we need in leadership today.

Having followed Kennedy Agyapong for over twelve years, I can boldly say he is an assertive, principled, and courageous man. He speaks truth to power without fear or favour, and his track record of hard work, patriotism, and visionary thinking sets him apart from the ordinary.

If Ghana were to give him the opportunity to lead, I firmly believe he would transform the nation, restore accountability, and inspire a culture of productivity and excellence across all sectors. His style of leadership-firm, focused, and fearless-has the potential to make Ghana a worldwide success story, much like Paul Kagame’s Rwanda.

Kennedy Agyapong embodies the spirit of a transformational leader-one who refuses to compromise truth, upholds integrity, and places national interest above personal gain. Ghana needs such leadership now more than ever.

Which temperament? The extreme, uncontrollable high octane anger? Foul-mouth Ken isn't assertive, he is overly insolent. Looking at the type of people he walked over, it's impossible for guys like him to pretend to sophistication and guile required for the office of the president.

And...which people are voting for him? Even before the start, he should count out Gas and Ewes. That's a good chunk. You can't be calling people to be killed and still harboring pretension to their votes.

Ken is authoritarian and a bully. After having arm-twisted the Police Administration for 1000 job slots for his cronies the disdainful Kennedy Agyapong was on TV mocking them (the Police) and pounding chests to have achieved the feat. He then invited the Ghana Armed Forces for the same 1000 slots, and when they reacted negatively, Ken pulled a fit and went on the rampage with a torrent of expletive laden tirades, very disrespectful insults against the army and especially their honorable Public Relations Officer.

Until the death of Jerry John Rawlings, didn't Ken pass the whole time insulting the former President, the same way he did Mahama? This was the same dastard Ken who wept at the BNI Headquarters in the wake of his call for the extermination of Gas and Ewes! All of a sudden, because of power, Ken grew wings and horns overnight, playing satan. And in your infertile imagination, he could be president?

Ken is a traitor. Thanks to his revelation, we know Nana Addo never won the presidential elections. Ken was so worried he'd not be given contracts so he threatened to unveil what exactly transpired, how NPP employed subterfuges to win.

Ken isn't going to be president.

Ken is principled? You're a typically hypocritical Ghanaian. A snake who builds trust in people and quietly bites them when they're not watching.

Stop spitting out raw lies. Martin Looter Ken is only an asset to his fellow looters, but a huge liability to Ghana. While you're on your trail of lies, just ask that useless corrupt Martin Looter Ken what he accomplished in the years that he served in Parliament other than his insatiable appetite for looting Ghana government contracts and pilfering Ghana government assets. Ken can make all the noise he cares to, but his ill-gotten loot will NEVER get him anywhere close to the Presidency. How can any person in the right mind refer to Ken as a principled person, knowing damn well that Ken is nothing but a loudmouth unprincipled bully who has over the years threatened to the lives of those who dared speak about his corrupt ways or the crooked dealings of his NPP? There can be nothing principled about a thug.
