Former Energy Minister, Boakye Agyarko says he currently has no relationship with President Akufo-Addo.
Mr. Agyarko was sacked by the President in 2018 over a power purchase agreement between the government of Ghana and the Africa Middle East Resources Investment (AMERI).
The first Energy Minister under the Akufo-Addo administration said on Asempa FM on Monday that his decision not to be on talking terms with the President is not based on hatred but rather he has learned to move on with his life.
“I do not have a relationship with him [President Akufo-Addo] now. No, I don’t. People get married for thirty years and they get divorced, don’t they? …Not because of hatred.
“Me, I will never let anybody bring me so low as to hate him. I don’t hate anybody, but there comes a time when circumstances make it that you go your way, you have to move on,” he said on Ekosii Sen on Monday, June 20.
When asked if President Akufo-Addo did not trust him, he said “he has to answer that, I trusted him.”
